Abstract

Eosinophilic gastroenteritis is a rare and heterogeneous disease that is probably misdiagnosed in clinical practice because it meets a high degree of suspicion, and an endoscopy with biopsy is needed for diagnosis. The authors describe, with a brief thematic review, a case of eosinophilic gastroenteritis presenting as dyspepsia syndrome and mild peripheral eosinophilia.
