| Abstract | ||
| A significant proportion of immunoglobulin E (IgE)-mediated food allergies (FA) in older children, adolescents, and adults are triggered by cross-reactive allergenic structures. This is a series of 7 cases of allergic disorders associated with food allergies treated with allergen immunotherapy for aeroallergens in our allergen immunotherapy clinic. Different degrees of improvement were observed in FA during the allergen immunotherapy management (AIT) of other allergic disorders with allergen-specific immunotherapy for aeroallergens. | ||
