Abstract
The prevalence of allergic diseases has increased significantly, Hymenoptera allergy is one of the most frequent causes of anaphylaxis. The most common species are Wasps and Bees. The fatal risk has been known since antiquity. We report the study of two observations of allergy to hymenoptera venom collected in the respiratory diseases department of the Ibn Rochd University Hospital of Casablanca. A man and a woman, victims of a hymenoptera sting, presented severe allergic reactions requiring treatment with allergenic immunotherapy. The clinical examination was unremarkable. The blood count showed hypereosinophilia. Skin tests were positive for bee venom. The specific IgE assay for bee venom was positive. The diagnosis chosen was that of allergy to bee venom. Our patients were classified as Mueller stage III. The bee venom desensitization protocol was started according to the Ultra Rush protocol with clinical monitoring of the desensitization sessions.
