Bongkrekic acid (BA) is a lipotoxin that can cause fatal food poisoning. Severe BA poisoning can rapidly progress from liver and kidney damage to multiple organ failure and is rarely manifested as persistent hypoglycemia and rhabdomyolysis. It has a high mortality rate and poor prognosis. However, clinical data on patients with foodborne BA poisoning are limited. The aim of this study is to summarize the characteristics of patients with BA poisoning, provide reference for early diagnosis and treatment, and improve the survival rate and prognosis of patients with BA poisoning.
