[Antivenom therapy after a black mamba snakebite].

M Schutzbach1, S Vonderhagen1, M Jäger2.   

Abstract

A 24-year-old man was bitten on his right forefinger by his black mamba while he was feeding the animal. The primary symptoms caused by a full injection of the snake's venom therefore presented a life-threating situation. Due to pre-hospital troubleshooting of the emergency medical service and the timely administration of the antivenom further potentially harmful effects caused by the snakes venom were avoided.
