Objective: Anaphylaxis is a systemic reaction that can be fatal if not treated quickly and correctly. The aim of our study is to share the demographic characteristics, clinical course and triggering factors of the cases diagnosed with anaphylaxis in the pediatric allergy outpatient clinic. Material and Method: The files of the cases with a diagnosis of anaphylaxis who were examined in the pediatric allergy outpatient clinic between the years 2017-2020, were evaluated retrospectively. Results: The average age of the 57 anaphylaxis cases included in our study was 7.8±4.5 years, 56.1% were male. Of the cases, 68.4% were atopic, 49.1% had elevated serum IgE levels and 36.8% were accompanied by eosinophilia. Triggering allergens were foods (40.4%), drugs (35.1%) and venom (5.3%) respectively. Mild anaphylaxis was observed in 64.9% of cases. It was observed that accompanying allergic diseases, asthma and presence of atopy increased the severity of anaphylaxis. Two or more anaphylaxis attacks were observed in nine cases. None of the cases, who were prescribed adrenaline auto-injector, used the adrenaline autoinjector during the attack. Conclusion: Anaphylaxis cases are more common in boys. The most common triggering factor is food. Asthma, concomitant allergic diseases and the presence of atopy are factors that increase the severity of attacks. Adrenaline auto-injector is not used in cases where it has been prescribed.

Amaç: Anafilaksi hızlı ve doğru müdahale edilmediğinde ölümcül olabilen sistemik bir reaksiyondur. Çalışmamızın amacı çocuk alerji polikliniğine anafilaksi nedeni ile başvurmuş olan hastaların demografik özellikleri, klinik seyri ve tetikleyici etkenlerini paylaşmaktır. Gereç ve Yöntem: 2017-2020 yılları arasında anafilaksi tanısı ile çocuk alerji polikliniğinde tetkik edilmiş olan hastaların dosyaları geriye dönük olarak değerlendirildi. Bulgular: Çalışmamıza dahil edilen 57 anafilaksi hastasının yaş ortalaması 7,8±4,5 yıl idi, %56,1’i erkekti. Hastaların %68,4’ü atopik idi, %49,1’inde serum IgE yüksekliği, %36,8’inde eozinofili eşlik etmekteydi. Tetikleyici olduğu belirlenen alerjenler sırasıyla besinler (%40,4), ilaçlar (%35,1) ve venom (%5,3) idi. Hastaların %64,9’unda hafif şiddette anafilaksi gözlendi. Eşlik eden ek alerjik hastalık, astım ve atopi varlığının anafilaksi şiddetini arttırdığı görüldü. Dokuz hastada 2 veya daha fazla anafilaksi atağı gözlenmiş idi. Adrenalin oto-enjektörü reçete edilmiş olan hiçbir hastada atak esnasında oto-enjektör kullanılmamıştı. Sonuç: Anafilaksi erkek çocuklarda daha sık görülmektedir. En sık tetikleyici etken besinlerdir. Astım, eşlik eden alerjik hastalık ve atopi varlığı atak şiddetini arttıran etmenlerdir. Adrenalin oto-enjektörü reçete edilmiş olan hastalarda da kullanılmamaktadır.
