Core Tip	Bacillus cereus is known to cause two types of foodborne diseases: The diarrheal and emetic syndromes, which are usually self-limiting. Previous case studies have reported on children presenting with acute liver failure and rhabdomyolysis linked to mitochondrial dysfunction associated with the cereulide toxin. Herein, we report the first case of severe liver failure in an adult after a foodborne intoxication linked to a Bacillus cereus sequence type 26 strain harboring CES, SPH, and NHE genes. We review the literature and discuss the potential role of n-acetylcysteine therapy in these patients.
