Abstract

An  anaphylaxis  during  general  anesthesia  does  not  occur  very  frequent,  but  associates  with  signifi  cant  mortality.  The  causes  of  anaphylaxis  can  be  complex  because  of  the  large number of medications administered in the same time. All patients with history of perioperative anaphylaxis should have an extensively appropriate evaluation. The aller-gist is responsible for identifying the cause and other agents likely to be safe for future use. Here, we reported a patient with severe allergic reactions twice due to neuromuscu-lar blocking agents; atracurium and cisatracurium, which were confi rmed by allergy skin test. Furthermore, we reviewed the literatures concerning the diagnosis and prevention of  patients  with  anaphylaxis  in  the  perioperative  setting.
