Dr. Arulanandhan Ettiyan
Abstract: Scorpion bites are very common in India. Generally, these bites are harmless but occasionally they have serious clinical sequalae. The cause for cardiovascular complications in severe scorpion sting is related to the venom effects on sympathetic nervous system and adrenal secretion of catecholamines as well as the toxic effects of venom on the myocardium.
