  • Title: [Eosinophilic gastroenteritis and pulmonary thromboembolism. A chance association?].
    Author: Santana García S, Fuertes Martín A, Guerrero Peral AL, Aparicio Velasco J, Jiménez López A.
    Journal: An Med Interna; 1995 Feb; 12(2):73-5. PubMed ID: 7749013.
    Abstract:
    We present the case of a patient whose clinical signs were abdominal pain, diarrhea and fever, in which the diagnosis of eosinophilic gastroenteritis (EEG) was established and during whose evolution he underwent a pulmonary thromboembolism (PTE). We comment the characteristics of the EEG, a rare entity sometimes included in the so-called idiopathic hypereosinophilic syndrome (IHS) and the potential relationship between PTE and hypercoagulability in the context of eosinophilia.
