Characteristics of patients with spontaneous resolution of sesame allergy-Real life experience

CONCLUSION: Sesame allergy spontaneously resolved in about one third of our patients and in more than half of the patients with mild first reaction (grade 1) at a young age (<10 months), with small skin prick test (<7mm) and no concomitant tree nuts allergy. Larger prospective studies, with longer follow up period are needed to better characterize the sesame allergic patients with persistent allergy, who may need oral immunotherapy.PMID:34737038 | DOI:10.1016/j.anai.2021.10.031
