  • Title: [Pseudo-anaphylactic reaction to procaine-penicillin G. 3 cases of Hoigne's syndrome].
    Author: Dry J, Leynadier F, Damecour C, Pradalier A, Herman D.
    Journal: Nouv Presse Med; 1976 May 29; 5(22):1401-3. PubMed ID: 934859.
    Abstract:
    On the basis of three cases, the authors review the clinical picture of Hoigne's syndrome, characterised by the development of acute manifestations, essentially psycho-sensorial, immediately following the injection of procaine penicillin G (PPG). The syndrome is due to the passage into the circulation of micro-aggregates of PPG and has no immuno-allergic basis. Subsequent treatment with penicillin is not contraindicated.
