Anaphylaxis after contact with a jellyfish.

A G Togias, J W Burnett, A Kagey-Sobotka, L M Lichtenstein.   

Abstract

We report a case of an anaphylactic reaction to a jellyfish sting. The episode was manifested by hypotension and bronchospasm. The patient's basophils released histamine in response to nematocyst venom from the Chesapeake Bay sea nettle; this sensitivity could be passively transferred by a heat labile serum factor. This appears to be the first case report of such a reaction.
