title: Idiopathic anaphylaxis.
abstract: Three cases of idiopathic anaphylaxis are presented. This condition represents a rare but important cause of collapse. The development of atrial fibrillation, reported here for the first time, may lead to diagnostic difficulties. Early recognition and treatment is essential and will result in a good prognosis.
