A near fatal case of ciguatera-related intoxication following consumption of smoked Decapterus macrosoma is documented. In addition to some of the hallmark symptoms of ciguatera poisoning, the patient exhibited acute respiratory distress and severe muscle spasms. Laboratory results showed large elevations in a number of blood enzymes indicative of muscle damage. The responsible agent was extracted from corresponding fish samples and identified as palytoxin.
