    Author: Mathew A, Chrispal A, David T.
    Journal: J Assoc Physicians India; 2011 Aug; 59():518-20. PubMed ID: 21887913.
    Abstract:
    Massive envenomation by honey bees is capable of causing multiorgan dysfunction as a result of direct toxic effect of massive envenomation and secondary to systemic anaphylactic reactions. Acute myocardial ischemia due to bee envenomation is a rare event. We report the case of a 65 year old lady who presented with acute myocardial ischemia, severe rhabdomyolysis and angioedema following massive bee envenomation.
