Envenoming syndrome is an uncommon condition associated with significant morbidity and mortality following multiple Hymenoptera stings. We review the case of a 90-year-old male who presented after receiving greater than 100 bee stings and was found to have rhabdomyolysis with concomitant acute kidney injury. Physicians should consider envenoming syndrome in all patients presenting with greater than 50 bee stings, despite hemodynamically stability upon initial presentation.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
