Report on a 16 years old female patient suffering from pollinosis and asthma. After desensitization with Mischpollen-Depotallergen foreign body granulomas developed in the injection areas.

The increasing possibility of this side effect by more frequent employment of aluminium-hydroxid, for example in the production of vaccine, is directed on.
