Dermatologic manifestations of the hypereosinophilic syndromes

Kristin M Leiferman et al. Immunol Allergy Clin North Am. 2007 Aug.

Abstract

Skin is a commonly affected organ in hypereosinophilic syndromes (HES). Cutaneous lesions may be an important presenting sign, may be extremely debilitating, and often reflect disease activity in HES. Recognition of dermatologic manifestations is important in approaching diagnosis and treatment of HES. This article reviews cutaneous involvement in HES and other eosinophil-associated skin diseases.
