Abstract

In emergencies, we encounter many local and allergic reactions associated with bee stings, but the venom of a bee sting can also cause neurovascular complications very rarely. We here discuss a case of a 53-year-old woman who was stung by a group of bees her on face and back and presented with swelling and itching of the face and 1 episode of Generalised Tonic Clonic Seizures type seizures followed by right upper limb and lower limb weakness 10 hours later. MRI brain revealed multiple acute bilateral frontal, parietal-occipital lobes, and basal ganglia infarcts.
