Abstract

S corpion envenomation is important because of the possibility leading to a mortal prognosis. A girl who had scorpion envenomation was hospitalized in our emergency department who presented with stupor and sinus tachycardia. Systolic dysfunction was observed initially which resolved thereafter. We report a case of transient cardiomyopathy following scorpion envenomation..

Özet

Akrep sokması mortal seyredebilen tablolara yol açmasından dolayı önemlidir. Acil servisimize akrep sokması nedeni ile başvuran kız hasta uykuya eğilimi, sinus taşikardisi nedeniyle interne edildi. Kardiyolojik değerlendirmesinde ekokardiyografi ile sistolik disfonksiyon saptandı. Ancak izlemindeki ekokardiyografik bulguların tamamen normale dönmesi akrep sokmasına bağlı geçici sistolik disfonksiyon olarak değerlendirildi. Geçici kardiyomiyopati tablosuna neden olan bu akrep sokması olgusu nadir görülmesi nedeni ile sunulmuştur.
