Evaluation and differential diagnosis of marked, persistent eosinophilia
Immunol Allergy Clin North Am.
2007 Aug.
Abstract
Hypereosinophilic syndromes (HES) are a group of heterogeneous disorders many of which remain ill-defined. By definition, the HES must be distinguished from other disorders with persistently elevated eosinophilia with a defined cause. Although marked eosinophilia worldwide is most commonly caused by helminth (worm) infections, the diagnostic approach must include noninfectious (nonparasitic) causes of marked eosinophilia as well.
