Latex hypersensitivity in children
Current Opinion in Otolaryngology & Head and Neck Surgery, 1995Latex is a natural substance used in the manufacture of thousands of products. Although latex allergy is uncommon in the general population, health care workers and children with spina bifida appear to be at high risk for latex allergy. These patients may experience urticaria, rhinoconjunctivitis, bronchospasm, and anaphylaxis following contact with or

Hypersensitivity to natural latex
Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology, 1989Rubber hypersensitivity is well described but usually as a contact dermatitis caused by chemicals added during the process of making natural latex or synthetic rubber. IgE-mediated reactions, mainly contact urticaria, have rarely been reported in Europe. We report a case of immediate hypersensitivity to latex.

Since 1979 reports appeared supporting evidence of urticaria, rhinitis, asthma, and anaphylaxis in association with latex exposure. We present two cases of latex hypersensitivity, patients who reacted to latex on skin-prick and radioallergosorbent tests (

Latex Hypersensitivity: An Update
Allergy and Asthma Proceedings, 1994Products containing natural rubber latex can cause both delayed and immediate hypersensitivity. Delayed reactions are induced by chemicals, primarily antidegradants and accelerators, integral to the manufacturing process. Immediate hypersensitivity is caused by protein antigen(s) that occur naturally in the latex.

Journal of Perioperative Practice, 2019Despite the introduction and use of latex-free gloves, natural rubber latex hypersensitivity is still an issue in hospital medicine both for patients and healthcare professionals. Clear understanding of the groups at risk as well as perioperative assessment and management is key to reducing complications and improving safety. In this literature review,
