Abstract
All kinds of bees, wasps, and hornets are members of the hymenoptera order. Local hypersensitivity reactions after bee stings are very common and well studied. However, tissue necroses following untreated bee stings are extremely rare and they are not well documented. Two extremely rare cases of extensive skin and soft tissue necrosis following hymenoptera stings are presented. Current literature and treatment options are discussed. Local skin reactions following bee stings may result in severe complications such as tissue necrosis if left untreated. Skin grafting following surgical debridement is an adequate and practical treatment modality for such cases.
