    Abstract:
    This retrospective study concerning 96 observations from 1984 to 1987 allows to estimate the incidence of anaphylactoid reactions, the risk factors and the drugs involved in these accidents. During these three years, 96 anaphylactoid reactions due to anaesthetic drugs were collected. These anaphylactoid reactions were investigated by intradermal skin tests and in vitro by leukocyte histamine release. The drugs most often involved were the muscle relaxants and over all suxamethonium. This muscle relaxant must be reserved to strict indications.
