ABSTRACT
Cow's milk allergy is frequent in the first year of life. The symptoms may start during the first weeks of life, and may be cutaneous (50-60%), gastrointestinal (50-60%) or respiratory (20-30%), often involving more than one organ system. In this report, we describe a case of cow's milk allergy in a preterm infant in whom rectal bleeding and respiratory symptoms resolved with the introduction of an extensively hydrolyzed formula. Occurrence of the respiratory symptoms of this disorder in a preterm infant with bronchopulmonary dysplasia may cause re-hospitalization after discharge.
