Cas CliniqueChoc anaphylactique peropératoire au latexPerioperative anaphylactic shock to latex gloves
1989
A case is reported of severe anaphylactic shock occurring in a 32 yr old woman after foetal extraction during caesarean section. The agent responsible was the latex from the surgical gloves used. This was proved by the different allergological tests carried out : positive prick-tests to the latex, positive human basophil degranulation test and the finding of specific anti-latex IgE. All the tests carried out using the anaesthetic drugs were negative.
