Abstract

The authors report four cases of severe anaphylactic reactions (grade III or IV) to rocuronium bromide. In three of them, it was the first contact with a muscle relaxant. In three patients the reaction was mediated by IgE anti-bodies. A cross-reactivity with other muscle relaxants was existing in two cases (suxamethonium, vecuronium and atracurium in one patient, suxamethonium, vecuronium and pancuronium in the other.
