Chronic arachnidism � spider bite � case report and discussion

Abstract

This case accentuates the need for a multidisciplinary approach to many wound care problems. The diagnosis and treatment of our patients is facilitated by this approach and even then, in some cases
the entire team may be stumped � it is therefore wise to include all the relevant team members to aid in the brainstorming process and the ultimate management of the patient. Additionally we need to
remember to include the patient as part of the team, as the patient�s compliance is essential.
