Abstract  Background Deinagkistrodon acutus envenomation is associated with severe hematological and wound complications but is rarely described.  Case presentation  Herein, we report three cases of victims bitten by D. acutus and indicate that rapid-onset severe coagulopathy and thrombocytopenia are distinct features of D. acutus snakebite, which are not observed in other crotaline snakebites (i.e., Trimeresurus stejnegeri and Protobothrops mucrosquamatus) in Taiwan. The toxic effects could occur as early as 2 to 3 h following D. acutus envenomation and persist if the administration of specific antivenom is delayed or even not commenced. Based on our findings, 2 to 4 vials of specific antivenom as the first dose should be administered to victims and...

Abstract  Background  In most cases of envenoming by the green habu Viridovipera stejnegeri in Taiwan coagulopathy is not observed.  Case presentation  Herein, we describe the case of a patient with liver cirrhosis who developed venom-induced consumptive coagulopathy after V. stejnegeri bite. Laboratory investigation revealed the following: prothrombin time &gt; 100 s (international normalized ratio &gt; 10), activated partial thromboplastin time &gt; 100 s, fibrinogen &lt; 50 mg/dL, and fibrin degradation product &gt; 80 μg/mL. The patient recovered after administration of bivalent hemorrhagic antivenom, vitamin K, fresh frozen plasma and cryoprecipitate.  Conclusion  The liver, directly involved in the acute phase reaction, is the main responsible for...
