Abstract

Trachinus Draco, known as greater weever fish, probably seen more frequently than has been reported. However, only a few clinical cases have been reported in the literature that describes Trachinus species envenomation. Here, we presented a case poisoned by a weever fish and tried to describe the signs/symptoms and treatment modalities of the weever fish envenomation and also tried to emphasize poisonings that could be far from the sea with dead sea creatures.

Özet

Çarpan balığı olarak bilinen Trachinus Draco ile olan zehirlemeler, muhtemelen rapor edildiğinden çok daha sık görülmektedir. Ancak literatürde Trachinus türlerinin zehirlenmelerini tanımlayan oldukça az sayıda klinik vaka bildirilmiştir. Biz bu olgumuzda çarpan balığı ile zehirlenen bir vakanın bulgularını ve tedavi yöntemlerini tanımlamaya ve denizden uzakta ölü deniz canlıları ile zehirlenmelerin olabileceğini vurgulamaya çalıştık.
