[A case of the latex-induced XXXX by contact with barium enema catheter].

@entity1 @entity483 @entity1353 @entity565 @entity490 @entity110 @entity2021
The subject was a 34-year-old female with @entity565 and @entity483 who had previously undergone a Cesarean section. In December 1995, the @entity1 had an acute @entity490 , so she underwent a barium enema examination. During the procedure, severe @entity2021 shock developed, and the examination was stopped. The @entity1 responded well to appropriate emergency therapy, and her symptoms were resolved. However, the @entity1 visited our outpatient clinic because the symptoms of her @entity483 got worse. She indicated that she felt itchy when using rubber gloves. Also, at the age of thirty, she had @entity110 and @entity1353 after drinking a glass of fruit juice. Subsequently radioallergosorbent testing demonstrated the presence of specific IgEs against latex, banana, kiwi, grapefruit, and avocado. Skin prick tests were positive for banana, grapefruit, avocado, and latex extract at a dilution of 1:1000. A scratch test was positive to an extract of a balloon catheter which included 0.3 microg/g latex proteins by the LEAP method. In conclusion, the @entity1 was diagnosed with an @entity2021 to the latex contained in a balloon catheter used for the barium enema.
