Abstract

Patients with eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) present with gastroesophageal reflux, feeding difficulties, and occasional growth concerns in infants and toddlers, abdominal pain and gastroesophageal reflux symptoms in school-aged children, and food impaction and dysphagia in adolescents and adults.1 Most of the subjects with EoE have an atopic comorbidity.1 Diagnosis is made by an esophageal biopsy, obtained through an esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD), which reveals eosinophilic inflammation above 15 eosinophils per high-power field localized to the esophagus.
