Abstract
Fluorescein retinal angiography is a very well tolerated test; however adverse reactions of various severity have been reported, ranging from simple nausea to anaphylactic shock. Nausea, followed by vomiting are the most common anaphylactic incident after fluorescein injection. Premedication is sometimes indicated for patients at risk. Some authors propose desensitization protocols before carrying out an examination, while others propose as an alternative a retinal angiography with oral fluorescein, and sometimes the use of OCT (optical coherence tomography), or OCT-A (optical coherence tomography angiography). Finally, for more safety, it is important to equip the examination room with the necessary tools to manage this type of reactions. We report a retrospective study of 4 cases of adverse reaction following the injection of fluorescein for retinal angiography.
期刊介绍:
La Revue Française d''Allergologie : un véritable forum pour faire connaître des travaux originaux et permettre la diffusion de l''information auprès de toutes les spécialités concernées par les pathologies allergiques. La Revue Française d''Allergologie (8 numéros par an) est au carrefour de nombreuses spécialités - dermatologie, pédiatrie, ORL, pneumologie, ophtalmologie, médecine interne - qui, toutes, ont à traiter des maladies allergiques. Les symptômes des allergies fondés sur des mécanismes communs sont le plus souvent associés et se succèdent chez un même patient. En forte progression depuis 20 ans, les maladies allergiques sont dans l''attente de perfectionnements et d''avancées thérapeutiques qui permettront aux nombreux patients qui en sont atteints de mieux vivre avec leurs allergies. La Revue Française d''Allergologie se veut donc un véritable forum de discussions et d''échanges entre tous les spécialistes confrontés aux pathologies
