Anaphylaxis and urticaria are commonly seen in both primary care and allergy clinics. Foods, drugs, and insects are frequent culprits for immediate reactions; however, the trigger for recurring and/or chronic episodes is often unclear. We present a 56-year-old male with recurrent symptoms of urticaria, angioedema, and anaphylaxis found to be triggered by sensitization to galactose-alpha 1, 3-galactose (alpha-gal), a novel food allergen.
过敏反应和荨麻疹在初级保健和过敏诊所都很常见。食物、药物和昆虫是引发速发型反应的常见原因;然而,复发性和/或慢性发作的诱因往往不明确。我们报告一名56岁男性,其出现荨麻疹、血管性水肿和过敏反应的复发症状,发现是由对一种新型食物过敏原半乳糖-α-1,3-半乳糖(α-半乳糖)致敏引发的。
