Abstract
|
|
|
|
Eosinophilic gastroenteritis is an uncommon disease characterized by peripheral eosinophilia, eosinophilic infiltration of various areas of the gastrointestinal tract with gastrointestinal symptoms such as abdominal pain, vomiting, diarrhea and rarely ascites. This disorder was pathologically classified into three major types: predominant mucosal, predominant muscle layer and predominant subserosal. Although its etiology and pathogenesis was not yet definitely established, its treatment was steroid administration and the overall prognosis was favorable. We report a case of eosinophilic gastroenteritis with features of the predominant subserosal type, presented as an ascites and ileus.
