the reversed halo sign (rhs) may sometimes be seen in patients with cryptogenic organizing pneumonia (cop), but is rarely associated with other diseases. herein, we present a case of a 21-year-old woman with chronic eosinophilic pneumonia, with high resolution computed tomography (hrct) finding of rhs. this is an unusual and rare presentation of chronic eosinophilic pneumonia.

Eosinophilic cholecystitis (EC) is a rare entity that presents in a manner comparable to acute cholecystitis. The diagnosis is based on classical symptoms of cholecystitis with the presence of eosinophils (>90%) within the gallbladder. EC has been reported alone (idiopathic EC) or in combination with manifestations such as eosinophilic cholangitis, hypereosinophilic syndromes, and parasitic inf...

Eosinophilic gastroenteritis is a rarely reported condition. The disease is characterized by peripheral blood eosinophilia, eosinophilic infiltration of the bowel wall to a variable depth, and gastrointestinal complaints. Allergic diathesis can be found in most of the cases. In this article we report two cases with interesting epidemiological characteristics and we will have a brief review ...

eosinophilic gastroenteritis (ege) was a rare  gastrointestinal disease that was seen in all ages usually associated with dyspepsia, diarrhea, vomiting, abdominal pain, blood loss in stools and malabsorption. we reported a six-month-old boy with rectorrhagia, family history of allergy, elevated ige and eosinophil in blood with normal endoscopy. because of eosinophilic infiltration in lamina pro...

Asthma is characterised into eosinophilic and non-eosinophilic phenotypes based on inflammatory cell patterns in airway secretions. Neutrophils are important in innate immunity, and are increased in the airways in non-eosinophilic asthma. The present study investigated the activity of neutrophils in asthma phenotypes. Participants with eosinophilic (n = 8) and non-eosinophilic asthma (n = 9) an...

Eosinophilic fasciitis is a rare condition characterized by edema, induration, thickening of the skin and soft tissues, hypergammaglobulinemia peripheral eosinophilia. We present two patients with eosinophilic no elevation eosinophils at time diagnosis.

eosinophilic gastroenteritis (ege) is a rare inflammatory disorder of gastrointestinal tract characterized by eosinophilic infiltration of the bowel wall. it can mimic many gastrointestinal disorders due to its wide spectrum of presentations. diagnose is mostly based on excluding other disorders and a high suspicion. here we report a case of 26 year old man with a history of sever epigastric pa...

BACKGROUND COPD exacerbations requiring hospitalization increase morbidity and mortality. Although most COPD exacerbations are neutrophilic, approximately 10%-25% of exacerbations are eosinophilic. AIM We aimed to evaluate mortality and outcomes of eosinophilic and non-eosinophilic COPD exacerbations and identify new biomarkers that predict survival. METHODS A retrospective observational co...
