S. Azitoune, Z. Isfaoun, L. Hessissen

Abstract: Hypereosinophilia HE is a condition with various potential etiologies, posing diagnostic and treatment challenges, especially in pediatric cases. This article presents a case study of a child with major hypereosinophilia and emphasizes the complexities of diagnosis and the importance of continuous disease monitoring to prevent potentially fatal complications. The diagnostic approach involves a thorough examination, additional tests, and consideration of various underlying causes beyond the common parasitic, allergic, or medicinal factors. The article discusses the management of the patient, including corticosteroid therapy and dietary restrictions, as well as the role of genetic studies in identifying potential genetic mutations. Furthermore, it explores the prevalence and common causes of hypereosinophilia in children, highlighting the significance of early diagnosis and management in preventing adverse outcomes.
