Cow's milk protein allergy, a rare case report in the neonatal period

Food allergy is defined as a reproducible adverse reaction that results from a specific and reproducible immune response triggered by exposure to food. The immune response can be mediated by immunoglobulin E, not mediated by immunoglobulin E or both. During the first year, cow's milk protein is the first protein faced by children fed with breast milk or artificial milk. For that reason, it constitutes the form of food allergy most frequent in the first months of life. The objective of this paper is to describe a serious and rare clinical case of milk hypersensitivity in the neonatal period.
