Eosinophilic gastroenteritis: presentation of two patients with unusual affect of terminal ileum and caecum with manifestations of acute abdomen and literature review
Eosinophilic gastroenteritis is a rare disease; the long-term personal
history with digestive symptoms and the course of the disease with
relapses and remissions is the key for the disease to be suspected.
Endoscopy, CT scan and sonographic studies may provide important
indirect signs of the disease and in combination with histological
examination the diagnosis can be achieved. The administration of
corticosteroids is an important factor for the treatment or the
remission of the disease.
In this study two cases with unusual location of the disease, on the
terminal ileum and caecum, are presented and a literature review is
attempted.
The disease process, clinical and laboratory findings as well as the
surgical approach used are described.
Eosinophilic gastroenteritis is a very rare disease with its surgical
complications. The disease is a non-surgical disease, thus presurgical
diagnosis is important because the entity discussed can be under control
by conservative treatment. A high disease suspicious index must be kept
in the physicians’ mind
