Abstract
Injuries due to marine life are common all over the World. Although sting injuries are mostly benign, some may be life
threatening. We present the emergency management of a 52-year-old male patient
with local and systemic symptoms who applied to the emergency service after
getting stung by the stingray while fishing in this case.
