title: Fetal risk through maternal Amanita phalloides poisoning at the end of pregnancy.
abstract: There is a paucity of knowledge about prenatal and perinatal risks through maternal amatoxin poisoning. No symptoms of amatoxin intoxication, except for a slight temporary increase in liver enzymes activity, occurred in a term newborn after delivery despite an Amanita phalloides intoxication of the mother 2 days before. Considering previous reports, severe fetal intoxication may not occur during the entire pregnancy.
