Abstract :
The diagnosis of latex allergy is a clinical challenge that practitioners are confronting with increasing frequency. Distinguishing the causes of delayed-type reactions requires careful patch testing. For patients with immediate-type symptoms, currently available tests are imperfect. This review by four national experts presents practical approaches to a dermatologic dilemma.
