“…After removing duplicates and off-topic articles, a total of 71 articles were retrieved from PubMed, WS, and GS on the surgical management of maxillofacial injuries due to animal or human bites, along with cross-referencing. Two articles were published in German language, 11,12 two in French 13,14 and the rest in English (94.36%).…”

“…43,48 Venomous animal bites are more associated with lower limb bites, but some reports of facial bites have been included, notably scorpions 33,52 and snakes. 46,55,57,58 Despite fewer in number, maxillofacial stings have been associated with bees 13 and insects. 59 Even marine animals have been implicated in these injuries, notably two jellyfish envenomation reports.…”

Objectives: Animal and human bites to the face occurs commonly. If they are not fatal, these injuries can lead to highly detrimental effects. The aim of this paper is to review literature on this topic and to update knowledge on the subject. Methods: A comprehensive review by PubMed, Web of Science and Google Scholar was performed using the terms “face bite” and “face attack” for surgical management of wounds. No language restrictions or animal species were applied. Articles from the last 42 years have been included. Results: A total of 71 articles from 29 different countries worldwide were included. Despite animals’ anatomy and geographic differences, multiple steps of surgical management are essential to prevent wound infection, in addition to unaesthetic and functional issues. Late attendance can be very harmful. Conclusions: Besides several important steps, copious lavage with saline and later with an antiseptic is considered the be the most effective surgical maneuver. Primary suture and later reconstruction considerations were listed. Tetanus and rabies must be screened. If in doubt, prophylaxis is strongly recommended.

Renal and hemorrhagic complications following envenomation by bee stings are rare, posing significant problems for early diagnosis and treatment in the clinical setting. Bee venom is generally well tolerated. A 44-year-old patient was admitted to the infectious and tropical diseases department of the Zinder National Hospital with cervicofacial edema following bee stings. Initially, the patient lost consciousness. Respiratory symptoms included dyspnea and 91% desaturation on room air. The patient was put on oxygen to alleviate hypoxia, doxycycline to prevent secondary bacterial infections, and prednisone to reduce inflammation. The clinical picture was complicated by a worsening of the patient's condition due to a deterioration in renal function, and the subsequent appearance of hematemesis. A renal biopsy revealed acute tubulointerstitial nephropathy, due to direct venom toxicity on the tubules. He was discharged after 35 days. We report a rare case of bee sting complicated by hemorrhagic syndrome and renal involvement.
