[Proctorrhagia secondary to lymphonodular hyperplasia revealing a food allergy]

A case of lymphonodular hyperplasia as a cause for lower gastrointestinal bleeding in a 6 year-old child is reported. Bleeding associated with peribuccal eczema and buccal itching after eating some foods, all regressing on restricted diets, suggest the possible role of a food allergy. Digestive and cutaneous signs improved with oral sodium cromoglycate associated with restricted diet.
