[Anaphylactic manifestations during protected sexual intercourse disclosing allergy to latex].

Reports of allergy to latex have been increasingly frequent during the last few years. The culprit is the natural Hevea Brasiliensis latex which is present in numerous latex-containing materials for daily use. Clinical manifestations are usually benign. Systemic manifestations have been reported mainly in general anaesthesia. We report a case of severe anaphylactic manifestations that occurred during a condom-protected sexual intercourse. The responsibility of latex for this accident was demonstrated by skin and biological tests.
