Allergic Reaction Following Insertion of Vancomycin Loaded in Bone Cement
ABSTRACT Vancomycin bead is an important ancillary treatment for osteomyelitis caused by methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). However, red-man syndrome, which can be a life-threatening complication of vancomycin, may occur from the use of vancomycin beads albeit rarely. We report our first case of red-man syndrome caused by vancomycin bead's insertion for chronic osteomyelitis. Symptomatic treatment was not effective and removal of the vancomycin beads seems to be the best treatment for this condition. KEYWORDS: Vancomycin beads, allergic syndrome, osteomyelitis, anaphylactoid reaction
