[Acute necrotizing angitis with eosinophilic myocarditis in bronchial asthma(author's transl)].
In a 34-year-old patient asthma had developed as an allergy to infection. He died suddenly from cardiac and respiratory arrest following parenteral penicillin and sulphonamides. At autopsy necrotizing angiitis of the myocardial vessels as well as eosinophilic myocarditis were shown. These findings are probably the expression of a drug allergy.
