Esenboğa S, Şekerel BE. Exercise-induced anaphylaxis: a case
report and review of the literature. Turk J Pediatr 2019; 61: 440-443.Exercise-induced anaphylaxis (EIAn) is a rare, unpredictable, and potentially fatal cause of anaphylaxis which occurs with physical exhaustion. To the best of our knowledge, here we report the first case of EIAn from Turkey with no prior history of allergy. A detailed patient history is the most crucial point in the diagnosis of EIAn. The triggering and co-factors should be questioned in detail to determine treatment recommendations.
