Abstract:
The first case report of systemic evenomation by the five-ringed brown snake, Pseudonaja modesta, is presented. The patient had mild general symptoms of envenomation only, with no coagulopathy or evidence of paralysis. Data on P. modesta venom is presented, which shows an absence of a coagulant component in this venom. The venom gives a positive reaction to brown snake venom in the CSL Venom Detection Kit.
