Abstract
The anaphylaxis is defined as a serious allergic reaction that is rapid in onset caused by the sudden release of mast cell mediators into the systemic circulation and may cause death. The most common cause in children is the food allergy. The diagnosis of anaphylaxis is based on clinical criteria and the first line medical treatment is intramuscular epinephrine.
