  • Title: Coronary artery spasm complicating anaphylaxis secondary to skin disinfectant.
    Author: Conraads VM, Jorens PG, Ebo DG, Claeys MJ, Bosmans JM, Vrints CJ.
    Journal: Chest; 1998 May; 113(5):1417-9. PubMed ID: 9596330.
    Abstract:
    We report a patient in whom presumed vasospasm of an angiographically normal coronary artery led to severe transmural myocardial ischemia. To our knowledge, this is the first case in which an allergic reaction to locally applied chlorhexidine caused such a severe reaction.
