Abstract
Deep vein thrombosis is one of the rare reactions that can occur after bee envenomation. A 40-year-old female presented at our facility for evaluation and management of a left lower limb swelling two weeks after suffering a bee sting. She was diagnosed with deep vein thrombosis (DVT). The development of DVT was attributed to thrombogenic properties of bee venom and endothelial injury caused by released inflammatory cytokines. The patient’s mainstay treatment was with anticoagulants.
