We present a 78-year-old, unvaccinated woman with a tetanus induced severe opisthotonos, requiring mechanical ventilation. We point out the importance of verifying the vaccination status for older patients born before the early 1950's and patients with a migration background. Additionally, we emphasize on administering appropriate post-exposure prophylaxis.
