We describe a case of alpha-gal syndrome (AGS) in a resident of Washington, USA, after local Ixodes pacificus tick bites, which were associated with IgE increases after diagnosis. AGS should be considered a potential cause of anaphylactic and allergic reactions in persons with tick exposures, regardless of geographic residence.
我们描述了美国华盛顿一名居民在被当地太平洋硬蜱叮咬后发生α-半乳糖综合征(AGS)的病例,诊断后其免疫球蛋白E(IgE)升高。无论居住在何地,蜱虫暴露人群发生的过敏反应和过敏样反应都应考虑AGS为潜在病因。
