AbstractThe article describes a clinical observation of a severe course of a sporadic case of foodborne botulism in a woman at 32 weeks gestation with a successful resolution of pregnancy by independent childbirth. No adverse effects of botulism on pregnancy, delivery, and fetal development were noted. Anti-botulinum serum was administered to the patient no earlier than 96 hours from the onset of the disease. The paper analyzes the clinical picture of botulism, on the basis of which it is necessary to carry out a differential diagnosis.
