Abstract
We present a case of disseminated intravascular coagulopathy developing rapidly after being bitten by a snake suspected to be Trimeresurus albolabris in a 67-year-old man. The unusually fast onset of coagulation disturbances and the later renal complication should alert emergency physicians that snakebites (including Trimeresurus albolabris) can be devastating if not managed promptly.
