Overview
Surgery is not the first-line treatment option for patients with anaphylaxis.
Indications
Surgical intervention is not recommended for the management of anaphylaxis. Surgery is usually reserved with patients with laryngeal edema.
Surgery
Patients with anaphylaxis that develop laryngeal edema may require a cricothyrotomy or tracheotomy. This is to allow the patient proper oxygenation.
