Diagnosis and natural course of allergy to cooked potatoes in children

Abstract: Potato-CAP and SPT at specific cut-off are valuable tools in the diagnosis of allergy to cooked potato. Most children with potato allergy develop tolerance at mean age of 4 years. Allergy to cooked potatoes is a risk factor for the development of pollen allergy.

“…The infant had recurrent moderate AD, since he was 1-month-old, without significant worsening after introduction of the potato. A similar time lapse between onset of ingestion and onset of clinical symptoms was also observed by De Swert et al (5) in their case series of 17 children with proven potato allergy. Castells et al (9) described a case of immediate hypersensitivity reaction after ingestion of potato at 5 months of age when the infant was fed potato for the first time.…”

“…Persistent gastrointestinal symptoms, hypotension and hypotonia occurring rapidly after potato ingestion and potato-specific serum IgEs, were suggestive for severe anaphylaxis (4). In two case series of allergy to cooked potato in infants and young children, three cases of anaphylaxis have been reported, and none presented cardiovascular symptoms (3,5). On the other hand, vomiting and profuse bloody diarrhoea, lethargy, marked pallor, tachycardia and hypotension with metabolic acidosis and neutrophilia could be suggestive for acute FPIES, whose atypical form is associated with specific IgE positivity for the triggering food (2).…”

“…14 The existence of heat-labile potato proteins (unstable in the presence of digestive enzymes and gastric acid) that lose their allergenic properties when cooked or eaten explains why some subjects show symptoms only after contact with raw potatoes and not with processed potatoes or after oral intake. 1 Lentils, chickpeas, beans, and peas are the most common consumed legumes in the Mediterranean area. There is little information about legume allergy.…”

“…1 Raw potato allergy has rarely been described, and is generally in relation to Oral Allergy Syndrome (OAS). Adults with seasonal allergic rhinitis have been reported to suffer from oculonasal symptoms, wheezing, and contact urticaria after peeling raw potatoes.…”

“…Various transgenic potatoes have been developed and their food safety has been assessed using serological and proteomic techniques. [9][10][11] Several cases of potato allergies have been reported, [12][13][14][15][16] and a major potato allergen that causes hypersensitive reactions has been identified as patatin (Sola t 1). 17) Potato allergy is considered to be cross-reactive with latex or pollens, and their cross-reactive fruit and vegetables.…”
