Popis: Food allergy is in itself a controversial subject. Since extra- intestinal manifestations of food-allergy constitute a much contestable topic, a "group of experts" reviewed the literature on this topic. Results are presented in this "consensus" paper. Definitions are proposed. Internationally accepted extra-intestinal manifestations appear limited (anaphylactic shock, urticaria, angioedema, asthma and rhinitis). An overview is provided on the flood of manifestations that have been published as related to food-allergy. The consensus of allergists from all over the world on this controversial topic constitutes one of the orginalities of this paper.
