      Finally, severe hypotension during anaphylaxis after a wasp sting can also contribute to ischemic stroke (14). In addition to stroke, other systemic complications, including cardiac dysrhythmias, myocardial infarction, acute tubular necrosis, renal failure, hemolysis, rhabdomyolysis, and disseminated intravascular coagulation can also occur (10). Management of bee or wasp stings starts with airway, breathing, and circulation stabilization.
