Anaphylactic reaction after skin-prick testing in an 8-year-old boy. Abstract Text:

This paper presents the case of an 8-year-old boy who developed an anaphylactic reaction after skin-prick testing (SPT). The tests were performed with commercial extracts and were strongly positive for dog and grass. The boy had no incidence of anaphylaxis reported in his history. At the time tests were performed, he had been admitted to the hospital because of persistent wheezing and had a dog at home for a few days. Although anaphylaxis is very rare after SPTs, these tests should always be peformed in a place equipped to treat anaphylaxis.
