[The Posner-Schlossmann syndrome and allergy].

In 13 cases of Posner Schlossmann Syndrome, the authors have performed a systematic and full allergologic investigation. They were able to demonstrate in all cases an atopic constitution. The immunity tests in vivo associated with a rhinomanometric inhalation of the responsible allergen have shown positive responses to the pneumallergens and to the streptococcus hemolyticus by the way of a focal infection. In almost all cases secondary syndromic reactions were present. Specific desensitization carefully managed, closely supervised, makes possible in early detected cases the attacks to become less frequent and eventually to disappear.
