  • Title: [Fatal ewe's milk-induced anaphylaxis: laboratory work-up].
    Author: Vitte J, Bongrand P.
    Journal: Arch Pediatr; 2008 Aug; 15(8):1300-3. PubMed ID: 18586475.
    Abstract:
    Selective ewe's or goat's milk allergy without cow's milk allergy often presents as a severe picture. Diagnosis and follow-up are facilitated by the use of laboratory tests. Serum tryptase is elevated after mast cell degranulation. Combined determination of serum tryptase and immunoglobulin-E levels are particularly useful in the work-up of anaphylaxis, should it have been fatal. A case of ewe's milk allergy without cow's milk allergy and its laboratory work-up are reported.
