Abstract

A case of envenomation by the Mexican lance-headed rattlesnake, Crotalus polystictus, resulted in local swelling and muscle fasciculation, which abated after i.v. antivenin and an area of necrosis healed. A mild thrombocytopenia and hypofibrinogenemia with elevation of fibrin split products was noted.
