Eosinophilic gastroenteritis with acute abdomen: A case report
Eosinophilic gastroenteritis (EGE) as a rare inflammatory gastrointestinal (GI) disorder is primarily characterized by long-term or recurrent abdominal pain. Peripheral eosinophilia is usually caused by eosinophilic infiltrations into the multiple layers of the GI tract. In this report, a case of EGE with an acute abdomen is presented. A 14-year-old female experienced severe abdominal pain and hypereosinophilia. She underwent appendectomy due to severe abdominal pain approximately one week before readmission. Because of the persistence of pain, the upper GI endoscopy and biopsy were performed and the result of the pathological examination was eosinophilic gastroenteritis. Due to the nonspecificity of EGE symptoms, it is recommended that clinicians study pathology in atypical and nonresponsive GI diseases; biopsy should be performed as well.
