Eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) is a chronic inflammatory condition
characterized clinically by symptoms of esophageal dysfunction and
histologically by dense eosinophilic infiltration. Its pathogenesis
involves an immune-mediated response to environmental antigenic
stimulation. The incidence and prevalence are increasing and EoE
has become the most common cause of dysphagia and food impaction in
adults. Its management often requires a multi-disciplinary approach
as treatment includes specialized diets, anti-eosinophilic
medications and esophageal dilation once fibrostensosis has
developed. This book discusses the causes, symptoms and treatment
options of eosinophilia.
