Food allergies, especially delayed hypersensitivity reactions, are often challenging for both patients and clinicians. Here, we report the case of a 64-year-old man who had allergic reactions six hours after eating a meal containing red meat. He reported that he had several tick bites in months before the reaction. High serum specific IgE levels of alpha-gal confirmed the diagnosis of alpha-gal allergic reaction with delayed onset after red meat ingestion caused by tick bite.
食物过敏,尤其是迟发型超敏反应,对患者和临床医生来说往往都颇具挑战。在此,我们报告一例64岁男性病例,该患者在进食含红肉的餐后6小时出现过敏反应。他自述在此次反应前数月曾有多次蜱虫叮咬史。高血清特异性IgE水平的α-半乳糖证实了蜱虫叮咬所致红肉摄入后迟发性发作的α-半乳糖过敏反应的诊断。
