This is a case report of a "non-venomous" snake bite in a herpetologist observed at the Sciences Faculty of the Universidad de los Andes (Mérida, Venezuela). The patient was bitten on the middle finger of the left hand, and shows signs of pronounced local manifestations of envenomation such as bleeding from the tooth imprint, swelling and warmth. He was treated with local care, analgesics, and steroids. He was dismissed from the hospital and observed at home during five days with marked improvement of envenomation. The snake was brought to the medical consult and identified as a Thamnodynastes cf. pallidus specimen. This report represents the first T. pallidus accident described in a human.

Snake bite envenomation is a common problem in tropical countries, especially in rural parts of India. We came across a 30 year old male who presented to the hospital after 4 hours with history of Russell’s viper snake bite developing acute non ST elevation myocardial infarction (MI). Myocardial infarction was confirmed by history of left sided chest pain radiating to left arm with diaphoresis and electrocardiographic changes with increased serum troponin levels. Myocardial infarction is a rare complication of snake bite hence case report.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/jom.v16i1.22401 J MEDICINE 2015; 16 : 46-47
