ABSTRACT

The prevalence of allergy to proteins of the cow milk, at world-wide level is approximately 2% to 5%; in Mexico this number is not known. In a high percentage of the cases the suspicion from the part of the health personnel does not exist, and therefore the diagnosis and the treatment are delayed. The diagnosis, in most of the cases, is clinical; nevertheless, a great amount of tests, invasive and noninvasive with variable sensitivity and specificity, exist to diagnose it. The test of suppression of the allergen and favorable clinical answer is the better accepted diagnostic method. The objective of this publication is to present a known pathology (that is more frequent than it is often believed) and its clinical features, as well as the different diagnostic methods and its treatment.
