Bee stings are common in the tropics and cause minor problems but may occasionally cause severe anaphylactoid reactions.
Summary of clinical case: We present a case of M.O.O., an 8-year-old boy who was stung three times on the face and developed severe manifestations including acute kidney injury, cavernous sinus thrombosis and multiple convulsions but recovered without sequelae.
Discussion: There is an association between the severity of reaction and the number of bee stings but this case was unique in the sense that we had only 3 stings reported and we developed life threatening clinical manifestations.
