Hemoperfusion as Adjunctive Therapy in Severe Snake Envenomation Refractory to Antivenom: A Case Series

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Snake envenomation remains a significant cause of morbidity worldwide, with antivenom serving as the cornerstone of treatment. This case series describes outcomes of three male patients (ages 34–63 years) with severe envenomation who demonstrated progressive local swelling and coagulopathy despite receiving at least 15 vials of antivenom.
