Abstract
The estimated prevalence of atopic dermatitis (AD) in patients with eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) ranges from 2% to 19%.1 We hypothesized that the presence of AD is associated with increased severity of EoE, defined as an increased rate of food impaction, esophageal stricture, or subepithelial fibrosis on biopsy in a cohort of pediatric patients. We further hypothesized that eosinophil counts on endoscopy would be higher in patients with EoE and concomitant AD than in those without AD.
