To the Editor: Ciguatera outbreaks usually occur in the area between 35[degrees] north and 35[degrees] south latitude, mainly in the Caribbean, Indo-Pacific islands, and the Indian Ocean (1-5) (Figure). Likewise, each of these pathways may provide a means for potential therapeutic intervention of brevetoxin in neurotoxic shellfish poisoning and the more prolonged effects of related polyether ciguatoxin for ciguatera fish poisoning. The increasing popularity of snapper, amberjack, and other reef fish in temperate markets is widening the risk of ciguatera poisoning. |
