Abstract
Eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) is an immune-mediated disease characterized by complaints of dysphagia and eosinophilic infiltration of the esophageal epithelium with at least 15 cells per high power field (×400). Currently, there has been an increase in the incidence of EoE worldwide. Patients with EoE include both adults and children. The diagnosis of EoE requires morphological confirmation. Triggers for EoE can be aeroallergens and food allergens. EoE is often accompanied by other atopic diseases. The treatment of EoE is based on proton pump inhibitors (PPIs), topical glucocorticosteroids (GCs), and elemental or elimination diets. This review presents a detailed analysis of literature and proposes the therapeutic algorithm for patients with EoE. Key words: atopic diseases, dysphagia, eosinophilic infiltration, eosinophilic esophagitis
