Abstract

Anaphylaxis is more prevalent in patients with SM, predominantly in patients with atopic SM. Hymenoptera venom-induced and idiopathic anaphylaxis were the most frequent elicitors. Our findings implicate that all mastocytosis patients with anaphylaxis should undergo detailed allergological assessment before considering treatment and preventive measures.
