Southern Medical Journal, 1986
We treated 18 patients who had Crotalidae envenomation between January 1980 and September 1984. Primary antivenin therapy minimized morbidity and obviated mortality. More specificially, judicious though quantitatively sufficient antivenin therapy made surgical intervention unnecessary.

Knowledge of the habits and habitats of known venomous arthropods is certainly advisable for the prudent person in areas of known infestation as a preventive measure. Arthropod envenomations probably produce much less mortality than previously thought, but the potential
