Résumé

Perioperative anaphylaxis mainly involves neuromuscular blocking agents (NMBAs) with an IgE mediated mechanism. In France, this life threatening condition is fairly reported by anesthetists and allergologists, and two safety alerts concerning suxamethonium were raised in 2011 and 2012. This led to start a national survey over the 2000-2012 period which objectives were to provide a descriptive analysis, to estimate incidence rates and to analyze the trends over this period.
