[Results of hyposensitization in children (author's transl)].
The results of specific hyposensitization in 160 children (121 boys) were evaluated using a questionnaire. In 54% complete remission or clear-cut improvement without additional need for medication was achieved. In a further 34% improvement was demonstrated when compared to the pretreatment period. The main initial complaints were allergic rhinitis or allergic asthma. Treatment was pursued for at least 3 months and for a maximum of 3 years. There were no differences in the success rate as regards sex and offending allergen.
