- W2916992212 abstract "Endocrinal insufficiency caused by vasculotoxic snake envenomation is under-recognized and is mostly confined to a specific geographic area. We conducted a prospective study to determine the prevalence and pattern of pituitary-target gland insufficiencies caused by snake envenomation.The hormonal evaluation of patients who had suffered from vasculotoxic snake envenomation was done at baseline and at 6 months of follow-up. Those patients with a documented hormonal insufficiency underwent magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the hypothalamo-pituitary area. The severity of envenomation was assessed by the acute physiology and chronic health evaluation II (APACHE-II) score, the sepsis-related organ failure assessment (SOFA) score, and the snake bite severity score (SBSS) for all patients.Seventy-six patients were seen during the study period, of which 60 were available for a repeat hormonal evaluation at 6 months, with the majority of patients belonging to the middle age group (mean age, 37.6 ± 14.9 years). The mean lag period at presentation was 32 ± 20 h. Thirty-five patients (46.1%) had coagulopathy, 20 patients (26.3%) had acute kidney injury (AKI), and 8 of 76 patients (10.5%) needed renal replacement therapy (RRT) in the form of hemodialysis. Six patients (out of 41 with vasculotoxic bites) developed chronic hypopituitarism, which was in continuation with the acute hypopituitarism that they developed. Growth hormone and glucocorticoid deficiencies were the most common endocrinopathies observed. The occurrence of hypopituitarism was observed only in patients with a vasculotoxic snake bite (due to Russell's viper); coagulopathy, renal insufficiency, or any of the scoring tools did not predict the occurrence of hypopituitarism.Acute asymptomatic and chronic symptomatic or asymptomatic hypopituitarism are important sequelae of viper bite in a small proportion of patients and can occur in the presence of normal pituitary imaging. Routine prospective pituitary hormone screening should be done in all patients within the first 6 months of envenomation by the vasculotoxic snakebite as chronic pituitary dysfunction can often occur in these patients." @default.
