Abstract
An autopsy case of food poisoning probably caused by Bacillus cereus is presented. The patient was an 11-year-old boy who died about 15 hours after eating Chinese noodles. The main pathological features were acute nonspecific gastroenteritis and fatty degeneration of the heart and liver. Bacillus cereus was isolated and identified from the peritoneal exudate and intestinal contents. The cause of death is considered to be heart failure resulting from myocardial fatty degeneration.Entities:
