Summary

Allergy to Hymenoptera venom is one of the main causes of anaphylaxis in adults, and is less common in the paediatric population. It can be severe or even fatal.

Despite the use of an emergency kit, including an adrenaline auto-injector (AAI), at present only hymenoptera venom immunotherapy (VIT) is effective in preventing subsequent severe systemic reactions.

Recurrence during the 5 years following cessation of VIT is about 10-15 percent. Studies evaluating longer-term efficacy are scarce.

At the University Hospital of Angers, hundreds of patients are treated each year, and its allergology unit has been providing VIT for over 15 years.

The purpose of this stufy is to evaluate VIT efficacy among patients who were treated with VIT and ceased VIT from 2005 to 2019, at the university hospital of Angers.
