Eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) is frequently miss-diagnosed or overlooked for several years because of the invasiveness of investigations and the non-specificity of symptoms in childhood. Due to the lack of specific recommendations in children, its management remains very heterogeneous, especially concerning allergy testing. The aim of this study is to analyze our population and practices, in comparison with the literature, with a focus on allergic management, to harmonize and optimize our practice.
