ABSTRACT

Paciente feminina, 47 anos, previamente hígida, apresentou reação anafilática associada ao uso do ácido poli-L-láctico (PLLA). Imediatamente após a administração do bioestimulador, a paciente referiu edema de face que evoluiu para urticária generalizada, edema em membros inferiores e tremores. Posteriormente, apresentou edema de língua e dificuldade para falar. Teste de puntura com extratos de PLLA na concentração pura 1:1 e testes intradérmicos na diluição 1:10 e 1:100 mostrou-se positivo. Paciente negou cofatores no dia do procedimento e alergias prévias. O presente artigo descreve o primeiro caso da literatura de anafilaxia ao PLLA, onde se discute aspectos da reação anafilática e exames usados para o diagnóstico.


A previously healthy 47-year-old woman had an anaphylactic reaction caused by poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA). Immediately after the administration of the biostimulating agent, the patient reported facial edema, which progressed to generalized urticaria, lower extremity edema, and tremors. Then she had tongue edema and difficulties to talk. A prick test with pure PLLA extracts (1:1) and intradermic tests (1:10 and 1:100 dilutions) were positive. The patient denied cofactors on procedure day as well as previous allergies. This is the first case report of anaphylaxis due to PLLA and includes a discussion of aspects of the anaphylactic reaction and tests that were used to provide the diagnosis.
