Background Actually, there are few reports of cross-reactivity between cassava and latex in the syndrome latex-fruit. Of allergens in the latex are identified particularly relevant to this case, recall some of them: Hev b 6.02, major allergen, Hev b 1, structural homology to papain, and Hev b 5, which could be responsible for the cross reactivity between latex and cassava by their structural similarity with an allergen in cassava identified, known as Man and 5. Next we will detail the case of a patient with a diagnosis of “Syndrome latex-fruit allergy” and related to the group of fruits which been reported less frequently. |
