摘要：

Botulism is a well recognized clinical syndrome that is usually the result of eating food contaminated with botulin, a toxin derived from Clostridium botulinum. Rarely, botulism is caused by the toxin produced within a wound infected with that organism. The majority of such cases have been in open fractures, but nevertheless, it has been mentioned as a complication only infrequently. The present case is reported to alert orthopaedic surgeons to this complication in a healthy six-year-old white girl.
