Death as a result of a bee sting is uncommon in Australia. During the 22 years from 1960 to 1981, 25 individuals have been recorded by the Australian Bureau of Statistics as having died shortly after a bee sting. This gives a mortality incidence of 0.086/1 000 000 population per year, but may be an underestimate, as we report two additional fatalities that did not appear in the records of the B...
• Vol 9 • April 2007 Transient ST-Elevation Following a Wasp Sting The occurrence of an acute myocardial infarction after a bee, wasp or yellow-jacket sting has been reported in the literature [1,2]. The anaphylactic shock and the use of epinephrine can act synergistically and produce acute coronary thrombosis. We report here the case of a 57 year old man who was admitted to our institution aft...
Bee venom acupuncture has been widely used in Oriental medicine with limited evidence of effectiveness. Most of the complications due to bee venom acupuncture are local or systemic allergic reactions. However, serious medical and neurological complications have also been reported. We herein describe the treatment of a 68-year-old woman who developed progressive quadriplegia 10 days after receiv...
BACKGROUND Treatment failure during venom immunotherapy (VIT) may be associated with a variety of risk factors. OBJECTIVE Our aim was to evaluate the association of baseline serum tryptase concentration (BTC) and of other parameters with the frequency of VIT failure during the maintenance phase. METHODS In this observational prospective multicenter study, we followed 357 patients with estab...
TheDufourÕs glandof twosolitarycavity-nestingbees,Osmia lignariaSayandMegachile rotundata (F.) (Hymenoptera: Megachilidae), was examined with microscopy to determine the structure and arrangement of the gland in the sting apparatus. The appearance and relative size of the DufourÕs gland of these two bee species are similar. Unlike the termination of the DufourÕs gland at the base of the sting i...
INTRODUCTION Beekeepers are a group of people with high exposure to honeybee stings and with a very high risk of allergy to bee venom. Therefore, they are a proper population to study the correlations between clinical symptoms and results of diagnostic tests. AIM The primary aim of our study was to assess the correlations between total IgE, venom- and phospholipase A2-specific IgE and clinica...
Corneal Bee Sting Controlled with Early Surgical Intervention and Systemic High-Dose Steroid Therapy
A 34-year-old Asian woman presented with painful corneal bee sting. Examinations revealed severe corneal swelling with stinger stuck in deep stroma and endothelial cell loss. She was treated with early surgery including stinger removal and anterior chamber irrigation combined with systemic high-dose steroid therapy. Vision and corneal clarity was recovered in 5 days and no additional corneal en...
We report a case of a 33-year-old woman who developed severe brain edema and pseudo-subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) at 36-hour follow-up after successful cardiopulmonary resuscitation for anaphylactic shock as a result of a bee sting. The patient died on the sixth day of the follow-up due to multiple organ failure and brain herniation. Our case suggests that the SAH-like findings on computed tomo...
