Envenoming syndrome from Africanized bee stings is a toxic syndrome caused by the inoculation of large amounts of venom from multiple bee stings, generally more than five hundred. The incidence of severe toxicity from Africanized bee stings is rare but deadly. This report reveals that because of the small volume of distribution, having fewer stings does not exempt a patient from experiencing an unfavorable outcome, particularly in children, elderly people or underweight people.
非洲化蜜蜂蜇伤所致的中毒综合征是一种中毒综合征,由多次蜜蜂蜇伤注入大量毒液引起,通常超过500次。非洲化蜜蜂蜇伤导致严重毒性的发生率虽低但可致命。本报告显示,由于分布容积小,蜇伤次数少并不能使患者免于出现不良后果,尤其是儿童、老年人或体重过轻者。
