Botulism Type F, a Rare Type of Botulism that Can Masquerade as a Posterior Fossa Stroke

The authors aim to highlight the clinical presentation and diagnostic challenges of Type F botulism, a rare variant that can mimic posterior fossa stroke symptoms. They present a case of a 41-year-old woman whose rapid progression of neurological symptoms led to a diagnosis of Type F botulism, emphasizing the importance of recognizing such atypical presentations and the need for timely antitoxin treatment to improve patient outcomes.
