Abstract
AIMS: In the present study, the authors intend to demonstrate the advantages of molecular diagnosis in immunoallergology through the description of a clinical case.CASE DESCRIPTION: We present the case of a 9-year-old male, followed by pediatric immunoallergology with the diagnoses of moderate persistent asthma, persistent rhinitis, atopic eczema and food allergy with severe manifestations (several episodes of anaphylaxis). molecular profile of allergic sensitization contributed to better knowledge of the patient, therapeutic and even prognostic adequacy.CONCLUSIONS: The molecular allergy diagnostic tests, according to the analysis of the present case, allows the establishment and escalation in terms of severity of a more individualistic sensitization profile, which is especially important in the patient who is polysensitized and with reports of respiratory and food allergies.

DESCRIÇÃO DO CASO: Apresentamos o caso de uma criança, do sexo masculino, 9 anos de idade seguido em consulta de imunoalergologia pediátrica com os diagnósticos de asma persistente moderada, rinite persistente, eczema atópico e alergia alimentar com manifestações graves (vários episódios de anafilaxia), cujo estudo do perfil molecular de sensibilização alérgica contribuiu para melhor conhecimento do doente, adequação terapêutica e, inclusive, prognóstica. CONCLUSÕES: O estudo molecular alergológico, conforme análise do caso em estudo, permite o estabelecimento e escalonamento em termos de gravidade de um perfil de sensibilização mais individualista, que é sobretudo importante no doente polissensibilizado e com relato de alergias respiratórias e alimentares
