Food protein-induced enterocolitis syndrome due to banana: an uncommon entity

SUMMARY

Food protein-induced enterocolitis syndrome is a non-IgE-mediated food allergy that typically occurs within the first year of age and it is often misdiagnosed for its rarity.This syndrome is usually caused by milk or soy in formula-fed infants, but it can also be associated to solid food proteins, fruit proteins included.We describe and discuss the first case of an infant with mild acute/late form of FPIES due to banana only.
