Scorpion sting: eclampsia

Abstract

Scorpion stings are common in many regions of the world, particularly in rural areas. While most of the stings are harmless and tend to be milder, some stings rarely have severe clinical course, including neurological, cardiovascular and respiratory system complications. Although there are many studies in the literature related to the scorpion sting, data on effects of scorpion stings in pregnant woman are very little. The authors have not come across any case report of eclampsia as a complication of scorpion sting. With this study, the authors aimed to discuss a scorpion sting lead to an unexpected complication, eclampsia.
