Abstract
The Authors described a case of scombroid poisoning in a 14-year-old atopic boy, initially misdiagnosed as allergic urticaria. Scombroid poisoning is a poorly known type of food poisoning due to the presence of histamine in spoiled fish of the Scombridae family. The patient presented with an itchy truncal rash after eating a pizza with tuna. The antihistamine therapy was promptly effective.
