“…Embora seja um acidente de ocorrência comum, pouco se sabe sobre a patogênese dessa toxicose (Fighera et al, 2007). As manifestações clinicas costumam ser decorrentes da inoculação de substâncias vasodilatadoras presentes no veneno desses insetos que frequentemente cursam com rabdomiólise e crise hemolítica (França, 1994).…”

“…A hemoglobinúria pode ser responsável pela necrose tubular aguda. Entretanto, alguns estudos relatam que talvez haja uma ação direta de alguns constituintes do veneno sobre as células do epitélio tubular renal (Fighera et al, 2007, Maraschin, 2015. Os sinais clínicos podem variar de eritema e edema até mesmo a sinais de reação sistêmica, como vômitos, diarreias, dificuldades respiratórias e choques.…”

“…Os sinais clínicos podem variar de eritema e edema até mesmo a sinais de reação sistêmica, como vômitos, diarreias, dificuldades respiratórias e choques. Casos de crise hemolítica também têm sido descritos (Fighera et al, 2007). O diagnóstico pode ser feito pela presença dos ferrões infiltrados na pele, boca, língua e até mesmo no esôfago, estômago e intestino delgado dos cães afetados, bem como o auxílio de exames laboratoriais como hemograma, bioquímicos, urinalise e até mesmo por necropsia (Machado et al, 2012).…”

RESUMO. Acidentes por picadas de abelhas em cães ocorrem com frequência, entretanto, há poucos casos descritos em literatura. Este relato descreve um caso fatal de um canino, com sinais de reação tóxica sistêmica decorrente de um acidente por abelhas. Os principais sinais clínicos foram hemólise e hemoglobinúria. Outros achados incluíram taquicardia e dispneia bem como a presença dos ferrões no corpo do animal. Apesar da instituição do tratamento clínico, o animal veio a óbito duas horas após.Palavras chaves: abelha, anafilaxia, anemia hemolítica, cão, emergência Toxic infestation by bee sting in dogABSTRACT. Accidents due to bee stings in dogs occur frequently, however, there are few cases described in the literature. This report describes a fatal case of a canine, with signs of systemic toxic reaction due to a bees accident. The main clinical signs were hemolysis and hemoglobinuria. Other findings included tachycardia, and dyspnoea as well as the presence of stings in the animal's body. Despite the institution of clinical treatment, the animal died two hours later.Keywords: bee, anaphylaxis, hemolytic anemia, dog, emergency Intoxicación por picadura de abejas en perro RESUMEN.

“…Initially, there is mitochondrial edema followed by Na+/K+ pump failure, hydropic degeneration, and hepatic necrosis [19][20]52,54 . In addition, lesions due to the venom itself may worsen necroses observed in severe cases 57 . Recently, Fighera et al 57 studied six fatal cases of dogs attacked by the bee Apis mellifera.…”

Introduction:In 1956, Africanized honeybees (AHB) migrated from Brazil to other regions of the Western Hemisphere, including South, Central, and North America, except for Canada. Despite being productive, they are highly aggressive and cause fatal accidents. This study aimed to evaluate patients at the Clinical Hospital of Botucatu Medical School (HC-FMB) and to propose treatment guidelines. Methods: From 2005 to 2006, the clinical and laboratorial aspects of 11 patients (7 male and 4 female) and the anatomopathological aspects of one patient who had died in 2003 were analyzed. Results: The age of the surviving patients varied from 5 to 87 years, with a mean of 42.5 years. The majority of accidents occurred in the afternoon, and the number of stings ranged from 20 to 500. The principal signs and symptoms were pain and local inflammatory signs, nausea, tachycardia, and vomiting. Biochemical findings presented increased levels of creatine phosphokinase, lactate dehydrogenase, and aspartate/alanine aminotransferase. An 11-year-old male patient died upon entering the attic of a two-storey building where he was attacked by a swarm, receiving more than 1,000 stings. He was sent to HC-FMB where he was treated, but he died 24h later. Observed at the autopsy were erythematous-purpuric skin lesions besides necrosis at the sting locations, rhabdomyolysis, focal myocardial necrosis, tubular hydropic degeneration and focal tubular acute necrosis of the kidneys, myoglobinuria, and centrolobular necrosis in the liver. Conclusions: Accidents caused by multiple AHB stings always constitute a medical emergency. As there is no specific antivenom, we have developed guidelines, including first aid, drugs, and the proper removal of stingers.
