Abstract

We report a case of eosinophilic enteritis associated with an ill-defined connective tissue disorder. The case was complicated by intestinal perforation and managed successfully without surgical intervention. No peripheral blood eosinophilia was present. Histologic examination of an intestinal biopsy revealed bands of eosinophils and mast cells at the base of the crypts with limited chronic inflammatory cell infiltrate.
