We herein report the fourth case of a pregnant woman bitten by a mamushi. A 33-year-old pregnant woman in the 25th week of gestation was bitten by a mamushi. Her vital signs were stable; however, biochemical analyses of the blood showed mild deterioration of anemia and hypoproteinemia. The effects of envenomation were limited to the extremities, the administration of supportive therapy without antivenom fortunately resulted in a favorable outcome. As there are differences in the maternal medical condition and weeks of gestation, further research is needed to clarify the optimal management strategy for administering antivenom in pregnancy.
