Examining perioperative factors in latex-allergic reactions.
J Perioper Pract
January 2025
Department of Trauma and Orthopaedics, The Robert Jones and Agnes Hunt Orthopaedic Hospital, Oswestry, UK.
Despite the implementation of latex-free gloves, the issue of natural rubber latex hypersensitivity persists within medical practice, posing challenges for both patients and health care professionals. A comprehensive understanding of the demographic groups susceptible to this condition is essential, along with the establishment of robust perioperative assessment and management protocols aimed at minimising complications and enhancing safety. This article endeavours to delve into the intricacies of perioperative management concerning latex hypersensitivity among patients, while also elucidating its ramifications for health care practitioners.

Ital J Pediatr
January 2025
Department of Maternal Infantile and Urological Sciences, Sapienza University of Rome, Rome, 00161, Italy.
Background: Angioedema is a condition marked by sudden, intense swelling of the subcutaneous and submucosal tissues, typically associated with hypersensitivity reactions, genetic mutations, or reactions to medications. It can also result from contact with allergens such as nickel, leading to dermatitis.
Case Presentation: A 12-year-old girl presented at our Pediatric Immunology and Allergology service with recurrent labial angioedema for over a year, linked to the consumption of legumes and tomatoes, and following the use of a metal flute.
Perioperative anaphylaxis manifesting as cardiac arrest during cardiac surgery.
Allergy Asthma Proc
January 2025
Perioperative anaphylaxis is a serious entity with high morbidity and mortality. Perioperative anaphylaxis can be caused by any of the multitude of medications and substances used in anesthesia and surgery, and the most common causes include neuromuscular blocking agents, antibiotics, antiseptics, latex, and dyes. The differential diagnosis of perioperative anaphylaxis is wide from both an immunologic and a nonimmunologic standpoint.

Int Forum Allergy Rhinol
December 2024
Department of Otolaryngology and Head & Neck Surgery, Emory University, Atlanta, USA.
Background: Endoscopic endonasal techniques, initially developed for sinonasal tumor resection, have revolutionized the approach to orbital lesions. The emergence of endonasal orbital tumor surgery has prompted anatomical studies focusing on the medial orbit, yet there remains a lack of literature on maneuverability lateral to the optic nerve (ON), with current feasibility assessments relying primarily on the plane of resectability (POR).
Methods: Bilateral anatomical dissections were conducted on four latex-injected human cadaveric heads using an endoscopic medial and inferior orbitotomy and superomedial displacement of the inferior rectus muscle (IRM) to access the inferolateral intraconal quadrant.

Department of Dermatology and Allergy Biederstein, School of Medicine and Health, Technical University of Munich TUM).
Background: Anaphylaxis is a systemic allergic reaction that is potentially life-threatening. Occupational anaphylaxis is an anaphylaxis that occurs in an occupational context. In this position paper, we propose diagnostic criteria for occupational anaphylaxis and provide an overview of the current state of knowledge in terms of prevalence, triggers, prevention, and management.
