Abstract

Eosinophilic esophagitis is a chronic inflammatory disorder of the esophagus. Over the past 25 yr, great strides have been made toward understanding its pathogenesis, in part due to studies in several types of animal models. The vast majority of these models have been characterized in mice. In this review, we summarize the histopathological features of eosinophilic esophagitis recapitulated by these animal models, as well as discuss their strengths and weaknesses.
