Popis: A patient who suffered a severe hypotensive episode after induction of anaesthesia, was subsequently found to show positive skin-test responses to suxamethonium. Investigation revealed that suxamethonium induced basophils from the patient to release histamine to an extent comparable to that found after exposure to anit-IgE. Basophils from control subjects showed no such response. Basophil histamine release may offer a useful approach to the investigation of adverse drug reactions.
