  • Title: Integrated approach to treatment of children and adults with eosinophilic esophagitis.
    Author: Aceves SS, Furuta GT, Spechler SJ.
    Journal: Gastrointest Endosc Clin N Am; 2008 Jan; 18(1):195-217; xi. PubMed ID: 18061112.
    Abstract:
    Over the last decade, treatment plans for eosinophilic esophagitis included the use of elemental formula, elimination diets, systemic corticosteroids, and the gavage of aerosolized steroids. Except for one placebo-controlled blinded prospective study, most decision making has been based on retrospective or uncontrolled studies and clinical experience. In this article, three authors from diverse backgrounds combine their resources to propose treatment paths with justification based on their clinical experience and interpretation of the literature.
