  • Title: What's eating you? dusky pigmy rattlesnake envenomation and management.
    Author: Sequeira MJ, Sequeira AJ.
    Journal: Cutis; 2019 Nov; 104(5):284-287. PubMed ID: 31886787.
    Abstract:
    The dusky pigmy rattlesnake (Sistrurus miliarius barbouri) is a pit viper (Crotalidae family) along with diamondback rattlesnakes, water moccasins, and copperheads. Although it is a small snake, it is responsible for envenomations requiring hospitalization. We present the case of a 54-year-old man who was bitten in the left index finger with onset of coagulopathy successfully treated with crotalidae polyvalent immune fab (CPIF) antivenom.
