Venom anaphylaxis [Elektronski vir] : decision points for a more aggressive workupBonadonna, Patrizia ...Diagnostic testing of patients who present for evaluation of insect venom allergy can involve many levels of investigation. A detailed initial history is critical for diagnosis and prognosis. The ... severity of previous sting reactions and the presence or absence of urticaria or hypotension predict severe future sting reactions and underlying mast cell disorders. Venom skin tests and specific IgE measurement can confirm the diagnosis but have limited positive predictive value for the frequency and severity of future sting reactions. Testing for serum IgE to recombinant venom component allergens can distinguish true allergy from cross-reactivity to honey bee and yellowjacket venoms. Basophil activation tests can improve the detection of venom allergy and predict the severity of reactions and the efficacy of venom immunotherapy but are limited in availability. An elevated basal serum tryptase level is an important marker for severe sting anaphylaxis and underlying mast cell disorders (eg, hereditary α-tryptasemia and clonal mast cell disease). When there is high suspicion (eg, using the Red Espanola de Mastocytosis score), bone marrow biopsy is the definitive tool to characterize mast cell disorders that are associated with the most severe outcomes in patients with insect sting allergy.Source: The journal of allergy and clinical immunology.
