Abstract:
Hemocoagulase Agkistrodon, a thrombin-like enzyme derived from the venom of the Agkistrodon acutus snake, has been employed in clinical practice as a hemostatic agent. Herein, we report a case of anaphylactic shock triggered by hemocoagulase Agkistrodon. A 32-year-old woman underwent diagnostic dilation and curettage with cervical tissue biopsy procedure under general anesthesia and experienced anaphylactic shock following the postoperative administration of hemocoagulase. Instances of hemocoagulase Agkistrodon-induced anaphylactic shock were rarely documented. Therefore, unexplained gastrointestinal symptoms and hypotension in patients receiving hemocoagulase Agkistrodon should prompt consideration of this possibility.
