Food protein-induced enterocolitis syndrome (FPIES) is a systemic, non IgE-mediated food allergy to a specific trigger within food, most likely food protein.As opposed to the more common IgE food allergy, which presents within seconds with rash, hives, difficulty breathing or anaphylaxis, FPIES presents with a delayed reaction where vomiting is the primary symptom.
Elbow: Posterior dislocation, 90% of all elbow dislocations [29] Wrist: Lunate and Perilunate dislocation most common [30] Finger: Interphalangeal (IP) or metacarpophalangeal (MCP) joint dislocations [31] In the United States, men are most likely to sustain a finger dislocation with an incidence rate of 17.8 per 100,000 person-years. [32]
Osteosynthesis (open reduction and internal fixation) of the ulnar shaft is considered the standard of care in adults. It promotes stability of the radial head dislocation and allows very early mobilisation to prevent stiffness. [5] The elbow joint is particularly susceptible to loss of motion. [citation needed]
The acute rupture occurs in collisions when the elbow is in flexion such as that in a wrestling match or a tackle in football. The ulnar collateral ligament distributes over fifty percent of the medial support of the elbow. [16] [17] This can result in an UCL injury or a dislocated elbow causing severe damage to the elbow and the radioulnar joints.

It typically develops in adults with hay fever. [1] It is not usually serious. [2]
People with atopic diseases such as asthma, eczema, or allergic rhinitis are at high risk of anaphylaxis from food, latex, and radiocontrast agents but not from injectable medications or stings. [3] [10] One study in children found that 60% had a history of previous atopic diseases, and of children who die from anaphylaxis, more than 90% have ...
