  • Title: Eosinophilia and helminthic infections.
    Author: Leder K, Weller PF.
    Journal: Baillieres Best Pract Res Clin Haematol; 2000 Jun; 13(2):301-17. PubMed ID: 10942627.
    Abstract:
    Among microbial agents, helminths are the most common cause of eosinophilia. An approach to the evaluation of a patient with eosinophilia is outlined, with particular emphasis on clues in the history, examination and routine laboratory data that can help with the diagnosis. Multiple helminthic infections have been associated with eosinophilia, and the characteristic modes of spread, clinical manifestations, diagnostic tests and therapeutic considerations of these infections are discussed.
