A scorpion sting is a serious and life-threating emergency emergent condition and is generally fatal in childhood. Heart, respiratory and nervous system complications may occur due to the effect of scorpion venom. The precise indications and using scorpion antivenin and other drugs in the treatment is still controversial. In this study, etiological factors and treatments are discussed in a four year old boy that died due to a scorpion sting. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
