Hemolytic uremic syndrome following taipan envenomation with response to plasmapheresis
Pathology, 1997We report a case of hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS) in a 33 year old male who was bitten by a taipan, with apparent massive envenomation. The microangiopathic hemolytic anemia (MAHA) and thrombocytopenic aspects of his HUS appeared to respond to plasmapheresis, but his anuric renal failure persisted.

18 The blue-ringed octopus bite and envenomation syndrome
Clinics in Dermatology, 1987For generations, lurid tales of attacks upon seafarers by huge octopuses have colored the fictional literature.
