Abstract
We report here a case of human envenoming by Thamnodynastes hypoconia, a common and abundant non-front-fanged snake belonging to the subfamily Dipsadinae. The case was registered in the municipality of Tapes, Rio Grande do Sul state, Brazil, in a 27-year-old female. The snakebite was on the wrist of the left arm while handling the snake in a field outing. No pain sensation was noted during the bite, and after 20 minutes edema developed along the hand and forearm with a slight sensation of numbness and mild pain when moving the fingers. After 15 hours, the victim began to develop erythema, paraesthesia, and a sensation of warmth at the bite site. After 30 hours, ecchymosis occurred on the fingers and forearms, and the edema began to decrease. After 70 hours from the time of the bite, ecchymosis along with pruritus and mild pain were still evident. The patient was treated with prescribed medications, and after 7 days no further symptoms were observed. This is the first reported case of envenoming by T. hypoconia.
