Background: Food protein-induced enterocolitis syndrome (FPIES) is a rare, non-immunoglobulin E (IgE) mediated gastrointestinal food hypersensitivity. It is a clinical diagnosis commonly characterized by profuse vomiting 1 to 4 hours after ingestion of the triggering food(s). Objective: The objective was to increase awareness of FPIES and review the epidemiology, clinical presentation, pathogenesis, diagnosis, and management of FPIES. The lack of availability of a definite biomarker or diagnostic tool often leads to a delay in diagnosis. Methods: A literature search of salient articles that described case reports and case series of FPIES and their management were analyzed. Results: A case of FPIES with a literature review is presented with emphasis on clinical pearls and pitfalls. FPIES is a diagnosis of exclusion and the mainstay of treatment is avoidance of the trigger food(s) for at least 12-18 months from the last exposure. Conclusion: As FPIES is a non-IgE-mediated reaction, allergy testing via skin-prick test or blood tests to measure food IgE antibodies is not routinely recommended. Many children outgrow FPIES by 3-4 years of age. Supervised oral food challenge is recommended to assess acquisition of tolerance.
