Abstract
Hornet stings are encountered frequently in clinical practice in Sri Lanka. Majority of patients sustain minor illness. However, common complication of anaphylactic shock and the rare acute kidney injury, multiple organ dysfunction and acute myocardial infarction have been reported. Most infrequently, ischemic stroke following hornet stings has been reported in scientific publications. In the foregoing case report, we discuss cerebral infarctions sustained for two days by a 42 years old female, who succumbed to the fatality.
