Zusammenfassung:	A case in which, besides the clinical complications that commonly follow snake biting, abruptio placentae occurred is reported here. None of the factors that are frequently associated with abruptio placentae were present. The laboratory tests performed showed that renal function was impaired and that a dramatic hypercoagulability was present. The relationship of the latter to the abruptio placentae is discussed.
