• The arterial blood pressure was 137 x 100 mm Hg, and the heart rate was 119 beats per minute. Because of this severe presentation, scorpion antivenom (8 ampoules; Butantan Institute, São Paulo, Brazil) was administered intravenously. [...]there was normalization of the signal in T2-3IR images in midmyocardium and apical myocardium (Fig. 2D) and maintenance of the slight areas with late gadolinium enhancement.
