Annals of Plastic Surgery, 1988
A review of the literature confirms that the brown recluse spider bite is a common and sometimes serious clinical entity. Local and systemic manifestations are extremely variable, thus complicating management of the bite. Pathophysiological studies in laboratory animals yield conflicting results and therapeutic recommendations because of technical and ...

Management of the Brown Recluse Spider Bite
Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, 1981A model to study the dermonecrotic effects of a crude fraction of venom from the brown recluse spider (Loxosceles reclusa) was developed using female New Zealand white rabbits. In the rabbit model, surgical excision of the sites of intradermally injected crude venom did not always prevent subsequent necrosis or wound dehiscence despite the use of ...

Brown Recluse Spider Envenomation of the Eyelid
Ophthalmic Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery, 1995The authors developed a rabbit model of the brown recluse (BR) spider envenomation of the human eyelid. The spider bite causes cutaneous necrosis and systemic toxicity in human eyelids, possibly leading to disseminated intravascular coagulation, hemolysis, and death. The treatment has been controversial. The animal model evaluated the effects of single-
