Nevertheless, the scarcity of studies does not allow us to extrapolate the data to the general population. Some research shows that FPIES is more predominant among male patients who account for 52% to 60% of the cases in those studies. The two cases presented in this article are both boys. Between 30% and 60% of those with FPIES have atopic illnesses such as dermatitis, asthma, allergic rhinitis, food allergies mediated by IgE, eosinophil esophagitis and hypersensitivity to drugs.
