Tetanus is a disease characterized by generalized muscle contractures and can be potentially serious, especially in tropical environments where it requires specialized care. Mortality is often associated with neurovegetative and infectious complications. Thrombotic and bacteremic complications are exceedingly rare in this disease, and to our knowledge, their association with generalized tetanus has not been previously described. We present a case of generalized tetanus complicated by venous thrombosis of the left leg and E. coli bacteremia.
