Abstract

This report describes the first documented clinical case of a confirmed, naturally occurring Cerastes gasperettii (C. gasperettii; Arabian horned viper) envenomation, providing valuable insight into the limited literature on this important species. The case describes a five-year-old pointer dog from the Arave Valley, Israel. Clinical signs included progressive soft tissue swelling and lethargy. Laboratory findings revealed severe coagulopathy, mild renal impairment, and evidence of microangiopathic hemolysis. Despite the unavailability of species-specific antivenom, treatment management with canine fresh frozen plasma, crystalloid therapy, and supportive care, resulted in full recovery within 36 hours. This case contributes significantly to understanding the clinical manifestations, therapeutic strategies, and potential pathophysiological mechanisms of C. gasperettii envenomation.

期刊介绍: Toxicon has an open access mirror Toxicon: X, sharing the same aims and scope, editorial team, submission system and rigorous peer review. An introductory offer Toxicon: X - full waiver of the Open Access fee. Toxicon''s "aims and scope" are to publish: -articles containing the results of original research on problems related to toxins derived from animals, plants and microorganisms -papers on novel findings related to the chemical, pharmacological, toxicological, and immunological properties of natural toxins -molecular biological studies of toxins and other genes from poisonous and venomous organisms that advance understanding of the role or function of toxins -clinical observations on poisoning and envenoming where a new therapeutic principle has been proposed or a decidedly superior clinical result has been obtained. -material on the use of toxins as tools in studying biological processes and material on subjects related to venom and antivenom problems. -articles on the translational application of toxins, for example as drugs and insecticides -epidemiological studies on envenoming or poisoning, so long as they highlight a previously unrecognised medical problem or provide insight into the prevention or medical treatment of envenoming or poisoning. Retrospective surveys of hospital records, especially those lacking species identification, will not be considered for publication. Properly designed prospective community-based surveys are strongly encouraged. -articles describing well-known activities of venoms, such as antibacterial, anticancer, and analgesic activities of arachnid venoms, without any attempt to define the mechanism of action or purify the active component, will not be considered for publication in Toxicon. -review articles on problems related to toxinology. To encourage the exchange of ideas, sections of the journal may be devoted to Short Communications, Letters to the Editor and activities of the affiliated societies.
