We report a severe envenoming caused by Tityus cf. silvestris in the Brazilian Amazon.

The case evolved with severe muscle spasms requiring intensive care unit admission.

Neurological symptoms persisted even days after antivenom therapy.

After 9 days of close monitoring, the patient evolved favourably and was discharged without sequelae.
