Abstract
Background: Food protein-induced enterocolitis syndrome (FPIES) is a non-IgE mediated food allergy that has a cumulative incidence of 0.015 to 0.7% in infants [1]. The most common allergens causing FPIES reactions include cow's milk, followed by soy, grains, and rice [1, 3]. Increasing clinical awareness of FPIES has resulted in the expansion of emerging triggers of FPIES, including fruit antigens.
Case presentation: We describe an infant diagnosed with FPIES to prune.
Conclusion: Fruit allergens are an emerging group of triggers for FPIES, both in their fresh and dried forms. To our knowledge, this case is the first presentation of FPIES to prunes (dehydrated plum). This case highlights that careful history taking can avoid unnecessary investigations and delay in diagnosing FPIES.
