The effects of ingestion of cow's milk in young children with cow's milk allergy (CMA) is reported, following a recently concluded study of 100 infants and young children who were challenged and observed in a hospital environment. The existence of various immediate manifestations of this disease, and those that develop over hours or days following milk exposure, are highlighted. Attempts to define different syndromes, with the aim of aiding the clinical recognition of CMA, are also reported.
