The clinical manifestations of wasp stings are often mild and localized to the sting site, vulnerable people may exhibit multisystemic and potentially lethal consequences such as anaphylactic reaction, intravascular hemolysis, rhabdomyolysis, acute renal failure and shock. Acute kidney injury (AKI) can result from wasp stings through different mechanisms. Here, we describe a case of 28-year-old lady who experienced acute renal injury (AKI) following fifteen days of multiple wasp stings. After three sessions of hemodialysis (HD) along with steroid and supportive care, her renal function was returned to normal. This case study emphasizes that managing multiple wasp stings specially in complicated cases with AKI should be consulted with specialized clinics which have dialysis facility. The management of wasp stings induced AKI should start as early as possible. The majority of survivors experience a satisfactory renal recovery after receiving comprehensive dialysis assistance when progressive renal failure develops.
