Clinical examination showed bilateral increase in nostrils, with great sensitivity to touch, presence of snake prey marks the rostral region of the snout, mucous rosy and with petechiae. Blood samples showed changes in blood clotting time (> 30 minutes). The animal remained in hospitalization with the following treatment: polyvalent antivenom, blood plasma transfusion, intensive fluid therapy, flunexim meglumine and sulfa associated with trimethoprim. The association of transfusion equine blood plasma to conventional treatment was extremely important for correction of coagulopathy caused by snakebite.
