Foram atendidas no Hospital das Clínicas da Faculdade de Medicina de Ribeirão Preto/USP, durante os anos de 1980 a 1989, 21 crianças vítimas de acidente crotálico, 16 das quais apresentaram sinais clínicos de envenenamento grave à admissão e 5, de envenenamento moderado. Quatro pacientes (20%) desenvolveram necrose tubular aguda, dois dos quais necessitaram métodos dialíticos. Um paciente (5%) foi a óbito no 13.° dia do acidente, após intercorrências graves, como hemorragia digestiva e insuficiência respiratória aguda. São apresentadas as características clínicas, laboratoriais e epidemiológicas do acidente crotálico nesses pacientes, enfatizando os conhecimentos atuais sobre a fisiopatologia do envenenamento por Crotalus durissus terrificus. Ao mesmo tempo, pretendeu-se contribuir para a correta abordagem terapêutica, no que diz respeito ao emprego adequado do soro antiveneno e à prevenção da necrose tubular aguda, a mais séria e grave complicação do acidente crotálico.
