BACKGROUND The clinical manifestations of eosinophilic gastroenteritis are nonspecific and vary depending on which layer of the gastrointestinal tract is involved. Computed tomography (CT) is valuable for detecting and characterizing gastrointestinal wall abnormalities. CASE REPORT We report a case of eosinophilic gastroenteritis that formed a chamber in the rigid duodenal wall of a 67-year-o...

Eosinophilic colitis and hypereosinophilic syndrome with colic involvement are rare diagnosis that characterized by wide-ranging gastrointestinal symptoms idiopathic infiltration of eosinophils in the colon. The diagnostic workup is challenging since there no standardized criteria. We report a case man admitted to hospital history nonbloody chronic diarrhea. detailed demonstrated blood eosinoph...

Background: Eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE), eosinophilic gastroenteritis (EGE), and eosinophilic colitis (EoC) have been diagnosed with an increasing frequency over the last decades. All these diseases share pathogenic similarities with respect to triggering by food antigens in the majority of patients once secondary causes of tissue eosinophilia have been excluded. While diagnostic criteria fo...

Eosinophilic gastroenteritis is defined as primary eosinophilic infiltration of the gastrointestinal tract. Endoscopic findings of this disease entity are non-specific, and huge gastric ulceration as initial presentation is extremely rare. We experienced a case of eosinophilic gastroenteritis presenting with abdominal pain in a 38 year-old-woman. Deep and huge ulceration in gastric antrum and b...

Food allergy is defined as reaction to a food which has an immunologic mechanism. Its prevalence is increasing in children globally and is therefore of increasing clinical importance. A useful clinical approach is to distinguish food allergic reactions by the timing of clinical reaction in relation to food exposure and classified as immediate (generally IgE-mediated) and delayed (generally non-...

INTRODUCTION Eosinophilic colitis, which is a rare form of eosinophilic gastrointestinal diseases, occurs as primary and secondary allergic eosinophilic colitis of the gastrointestinal tract infection, inflammatory bowel disease, celiac disease, and vasculitis. The diagnosis is based on a significant amount of eosinophils in the inflammatory infiltrate of the colon wall. AIM To analyze the cl...

Eosinophilic gastroenteritis is an uncommon disease characterized by eosinophilic infiltration of the gastrointestinal tract. The clinical manifestations are related to the layer(s) and extent of the bowel involved. In this paper, we present a case of intractable abdominal pain caused by jejunal submucosal eosinophilic infiltration without mucosal involvement, diagnosed by deep endoscopic biops...
