pubmed:abstractText |
We report a case of a 75-year-old woman who died of pulmonary thromboembolism following a dog bite to the calf. The bite caused laceration of the skin and gangrenous cellulitis of leg soft tissues. Six days after hospitalization, the patient died suddenly, despite early antibiotic and heparin administration. Postmortem examination revealed extensive thrombosis of the deep veins of the calf and massive thromboembolism of the main pulmonary arteries.
