Abstract
A case history is presented of a man who developed angioedema of his head and neck during anaesthesia for his 11th cystoscopy within four years. Thiopentone was always used to induce his general anaesthesia. An intradermal skin test with 1: 100 dilution of 2·5 per cent thiopentone was positive and subsequent anaesthesia without thiopentone was straightforward.Keywords
