Abstract:
We report on a 23-year-old female patient showing anaphylactoid mucosal reactions when handling Latex rubber gloves. Usually, type I intolerance against rubber gloves is due to allergy against Latex mediated by IgE. In addition, we discuss some general allergologic problems regarding the handling of rubber gloves.
