The fundamental difference between this form and the most common foodborne botulism is that infants become infected by ingestion of spores, followed by their germination, colonization of the intestines and production of botulinum toxin <italic>in situ</italic>, which leads to the development of life-threatening flaccid paralysis. Taking into account the peculiarities of pathogenesis, the clinical manifestations of infant botulism have some features, which are discussed by the authors. Particular attention is paid to the epidemiology and risk factors for the development of the disease. The article discusses in detail the issues of diagnosis and laboratory verification of the etiology of the disease. Current data on the treatment of infant botulism are presented.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="ru"><p>Статья посвящена мало изученной в нашей стране форме ботулизма, регистрируемой исключительно у младенцев. Принципиальное отличие данной формы от наиболее распространенного пищевого ботулизма состоит в том, что младенцы инфицируются путем заглатывания спор с последующим их прорастанием, колонизацией кишечника и выработкой ботулотоксина <italic>in situ</italic>, что приводит к развитию опасных для жизни вялых параличей. C учетом особенностей патогенеза клинические проявления младенческого ботулизма имеют некоторые особенности, что обсуждается авторами. Особое внимание уделяется эпидемиологии и факторам риска развития заболевания. В статье подробно обсуждаются вопросы диагностики и лабораторной верификации этиологии заболевания. Представлены современные данные по лечению младенческого ботулизма.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>botulism</kwd><kwd>infant botulism</kwd><kwd>Clostridium botulinum</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>ботулизм</kwd><kwd>младенческий ботулизм</kwd><kwd>Clostridium botulinum</kwd></kwd-group><funding-group/></article-meta></front><body></body><back><ref-list><ref id="B1"><label>1.</label><mixed-citation>Ибатуллин Р.А., Магжанов Р.В.
