Abstract:
Stingray injury is common in temperate and tropical waters worldwide. The majority of injuries are minor and can be managed with simple first aid at the shoreline; however, serious complications can occur. We report a case of Vibrio alginolyticus wound infection, retained foreign body, and posterior tibial artery pseudoaneurysm after stingray envenomation in a returning traveler. The patient presented with severe pain and dysesthesia associated with a puncture wound in the left lower leg 1 week after injury in Seychelles. Clinician awareness of infection and trauma-related complications of stingray and other penetrating marine injuries is important.
