Abstract
Green pit viper (Trimeresurus trigonocephalus) is considered a potentially highly venomous arboreal endemic pit viper which inhabits Sri Lanka. Green pit viper bites usually result in local envenoming and systemic envenoming features like coagulopathy are rare. We report an authenticated case of green pit viper envenoming which resulted in severe local inflammation which was associated with mild coagulopathy.
