[Imported mussels as a cause of Vibrio parahaemolyticus gastroenteritis].
Two strains of Vibrio parahaemolyticus were isolated from stool specimens of a patient who came down with gastroenteritis 20 hours after eating imported mussels which had not been cooked sufficiently. This is the first documented case of V. parahaemolyticus enteritis acquired in the Federal Republic of Germany.
