Abstrakt: Background: Food protein-induced enterocolitis syndrome (FPIES) is a non-IgE-mediated gastrointestinal food allergy mainly affecting infants and young children. Allergic FPIES reactions differ from IgE-mediated food allergies, for example, regarding elicitors and clinical course.
Objective: The aim of our study was to describe causative agents and development of tolerance in German children with FPIES.
Methods: We conducted a retrospective survey on children with FPIES from 14 centers in Germany assessing a 6-year period.
Results: We analyzed 142 patients with 190 FPIES reactions, 130 of which met acute FPIES criteria and 60 were defined as chronic FPIES. The most frequent eliciting food for acute FPIES was cow's milk, followed by fish, vegetables (eg, potato, pumpkin), meats (eg, beef), and grains. A total of 119 children reacted to 1 food only, 16 children to 2 or 3 foods, and 7 children to ≥4 foods. In chronic FPIES, all but 4 exclusively breastfed infants reacted to cow's milk feeding. IgE sensitization to the triggering food was found in 21 of 152 (14%) cases. Two children developed additional IgE-mediated symptoms upon a food challenge. Time to proof of tolerance was shortest in cow's milk-induced FPIES, and it was shorter in chronic than in acute FPIES.
Conclusion: In our national survey, we identified triggers for acute FPIES that partially differ from those reported internationally. Mainly foods introduced early in infant nutrition triggered acute reactions. Time to proven tolerance was shown to be contingent on FPIES symptomatology and on the triggering food. These data should be considered regarding nutritional advice for infants with FPIES.
