Abstract
Acute renal failure dud to rhabdomyloysis has several heterogenous etiologies, and among them hornet sting is a quite rare presentation. Recently, we experienced a case of rhabdomyolysis and acute renal failure due to multiple hornet stings. He was stung by a swarm of hornets(62 stings) on scalp, face, arms, trunk, and back. He was maintained on acute peritoneal dialysis for oliguric renal failure before renal function recovered to the normal range 41 days after the hornet stings. So we report this case with a brief review of literature.
