Abstract
We report a case of extrinsic allergic alveolitis, provoked by Deterzy me, a product used in dermatology for the cleansing of cutaneous sores , and containing fractions of protolytic enzymes and amylases of Asper gillus oryzae. The diagnosis was based on the positive precipitins to an extract of antigen of the product as well as positive bronchial pro vocation tests (semi-delayed) and the disappearance of the symplomatol ogy without any sequelae following cessation of exposure to the risk.
