Internet Symposium on Food Allergens 2(1): 9-74 ...................................................... EIGENMANN (Genève, Switzerland) Cow's milk allergy (CMA) can be defined as any adverse reaction mediated by immunological mechanisms to cow's milk proteins. CMA can be divided in IgE-mediated reactions (IgE-CMA) and non-IgE-mediated reactions (non-IgE-CMA) which may involve other immunoglobulins, immune complexes and cell-mediated reactions. Patients with non-IgE-CMA and digestive symptoms can present with the following well defined clinical pictures: milk- induced enterocolitis, milk- induced proctitis, or milk- induced enteropathy. CMA should be differentiated from cow's milk intolerance (CMI) reactions due to lactase deficiency or other non immune mediated causes which are not subject of the present review. Most CMA has its onset in the first year of life, and becomes apparent at the time of weaning from breastfeeding.
