摘要

IntroductionBeta-lactams (BL) are one of the most prescribed antibiotics(AB) class. They are frequently implicated in hypersensitivityreactions (HSR), with common skininvolvement. However, infectious conditions might alsoinduce cutaneous lesions, especially in children, and theyconstitute an important differential diagnosis to BL HSR.AimsTo characterize suspected BL HSR and analyse theprevalence of allergic reactions in our study population.MethodsWe retrospectively reviewed the clinical data from allchildren (<18 years-old) referred to our AllergologyDepartment for suspected BL HSR between 2011 and2013.ResultsEighty children (56.2% females) with a mean age of6.7 yrs (SD=4.035) where evaluated for 83 suspected BLHSR. The mean time elapsed between the reactionand the clinical assessment was of 3.1 yrs (SD=3.36).The most frequently implicated drugs were amoxicillin/clavulanate (54.2%) and amoxicillin (32.5%). BL wereprescribed for tonsillitis in 32.5%, otitis in 21.7% andupper airways infection in 19.3%. Cutaneous lesionswere the most frequently reported (94%) manifestations,with maculopapular exanthema (MPE) being the mostcommon. In 45 reactions (54.2%), the time of onset wasunknown; in 4.8% the reaction was immediate and inthe remaining cases non immediate (41%). In 23 cases(27.7%) there was no history of previous exposure to thesuspected drug; 15 children had previous exposure witha similar reaction. In the group of patients with immediatereactions or unknown time of onset (n=49), determinationof specific IgE (sIgE) for penicillin G, V and amoxicillinwas performed in 43 (87.8%), and skin prick tests in 42patients (85.7%), all with negative results. Of all patients,16 (20%) underwent intradermal testing (IDT) and onlyone patient had a positive result with PPL 1/1; late readingwas done in 3 cases, all negative. Oral provocation test(OPT) with the suspected BL (single or continued athome) was performed in 74 cases (89.2%) with positiveresult in 6 patients (8.1%), all of them exclusively with latecutaneous involvement.DiscussionSuspected BL HSR was only confirmed in 8.1%.Although MPE caused by BL treatment in children israre, there are no clinical distinctive characteristics fromMPE related to infections, making allergy diagnosisworkup mandatory. The authors raise the question ofthe need of sIgE determination and skin testing in lesssevere reactions, instead of performing directly the OPT.
