The mountainous forests of our country cover a large area and have a wide variety of hymenopteran species,which caused mamy people be stung by bees every year.Bee stings usually will only receive a slight local reaction,but people allergic to bee venom may occur systemic allergic reaction,and even life-threatening.Immunotherapy for bee sting allergy has been started abroad for a long time,but at present,bee stings and allergies in China mainly rely on symptomatic support and treatment.The immunotherapy research for bee venom allergy is very little,and the systematic understanding of bee sting allergy is lacking.This paper introduces the epidemiology and immune injury mechanism of bee sting venom allergy,and focuses on the applicable population,treatment mechanism,treatment scheme,effect and adverse reactions of immunotherapy,so as to provide new treatment and prevention strategies for patients with bee sting venom allergy.
