ABSTRACT
Hypereosinophilic syndrome is characterized by prolonged eosinophilia of blood and tissue without an identifiable underlying cause and multiorgan system dysfunction by eosinophil-related tissue damage to variable organs: liver, heart, lung, kidney, gastrointestinal tract, skin, nerve. Some case of hypereosinophilic syndrome with hepatic and gastrointestinal involvement have been reported, but not much. We are reporting a case of hypereosinophilic syndrome with hepatic and gastrointestinal involvement in 56-year-old man who presented general weakness and epigastric discomfort. In abdominal US, CT and MRI, intrahepatic multifocal ill-defined lesions were detected. The patient was treated with prednisolone for 16 weeks and recovered from eosinophilia and gastric involvement. A gastric biopsy was taken to confirm recovery. Also, the ill-defined lesions in US and CT disappeared after treatment.
