Acute ischemic stroke and severe multiorgan dysfunction due to multiple bee stings

Abstract

Various manifestations after bee sting have been described. Local reactions, such as pain, wheal, flare, edema and swelling, are common and generally self-limiting. Uncommonly manifestations like vomiting, diarrhea, dyspnea, generalized edema, acute renal failure, anaphylactic shock, myocardial infarction, hypotension, collapse, pulmonary hemorrhage, acute hemorrhagic pancreatitis, and atrial fibrillation may occur. We report a 59 year-old man who sustained ischemic stroke and multi-organ dysfunction following multiple bee stings.

Previously reported that, kidney injury, acute ischemic stroke and multiorgan dysfunctions ensued from poisoning effects of the bee venom [1,4]. Heart blocks and myocardial infarctions have reported due to the bee sting but as in our case AF is a very rare complication of the bee sting [2].…”
