Zusammenfassung:Food-dependent exercise-induced anaphylaxis (FDEIA) is a rare syndrome that was first reported in 1979 by Maultiz et al [1], who presented the case of a patient in whom anaphylactic symptoms were induced by exercise after ingestion of shellfish. In contrast, both ingestion of the causative food and strenuous exercise alone were well tolerated [1]. In 1983, Kidd et al [2] presented 4 patients with similar symptoms and introduced the term FDEIA into clinical practice. In some patients with FDEIA, the results of challenge with food and exercise are negative, whereas addition of aspirin or intake of aspirin without exercise triggers symptoms [3,4]. Thus, in FDEIA, aspirin can be considered an amplifying factor or even a substitute for exercise as a trigger of anaphylaxis.
