contents In this paper, we extend the enumerative study of planar hypermaps with an alternating boundary introduced in an earlier work of Bouttier and the second author. In that article, an explicit rational parametrization was obtained for the associated generating function in the case of m-constellations, using a variant of the kernel method. We develop here a new strategy to obtain an algebraic equation in the general case, which includes maps decorated by the Ising model, through a classical many-to-one correspondence. One of the main steps of our strategy is the simultaneous elimination of two catalytic variables. We then apply this strategy to the case of Ising quadrangulations, where we obtain an explicit rational parametrization. As a consequence, we show that some notable properties of the constellations case are no longer satisfied in general.
