Abstract

Background: SCORPIONs are widely distributed in Iran. Kashan city has a suitable climate for these creatures (especially Butidae species). The preset study was designed to determine the epidemiological picture of SCORPIONs in Kashan. Materials and methods: In this descriptive study, medical files of all patients bitten with SCORPION during 1991-2002 were reviewed.Results: Totally, 367 cases were bitten during the studied period, of whom 67% were male and 33% were female with a mean age of 23.1±15.1 years. Children aged <9 years were the most commonly affected group (36.5%), while lower limbs were the most commonly bitten site (64.3%). Most of the patients suffered from inflammation and pain, and unfortunately, 7 cases of death due to SCORPION bite were reported.Conclusion: SCORPION sting-associated illness was quite common in Kashan during the study period, therefore, preventive tools and suitable educational programs, especially at schools, are required to alleviate the probable problems.
