ABSTRACT

We present the case of an adolescent patient with a history of corrected myelomeningocele who secondarily has a chronic osteomyelitis of right calcaneus, receiving multiple courses of antibiotics and surgical cleanings. With isolating Pseudomona aeruginosa, with a history of multiple adverse drug (dicloxacillin, vancomycin, ciprofloxacin) reactions that using the diagnostic approach was confirmed by intradermal skin testing type 1 hypersensitivity to ciprofloxacin. During evolution, outpatient antipseudomonal treatment with ciprofloxacin was required; whereby desensitization was made orally, being considered a safe and effective procedure.
