title: [Comparative study of prick and intradermal cutaneous tests in allergic rhinitis].
abstract: A prospective clinical study to compare the skin prick test method e intradermal method as a diagnostic tool in allergic rhinitis: There were 100 patients with allergic rhinitis of both sexes in the study with ages ranging from 3 to 18. All of them received skin tests by the prick method to 10 common pollen extracts in Mexico City. If the patient showed positively was included in the control group, and if negative the intradermal method to the same extracts was performed. The intradermal method was utilized in 50 patients, of which only 12 (24%) showed positivity to the tests. This result doesn't showed a significant difference with the prick method, with a value of p greater than 0.05.
