Abstract
Eosinophilic esophagitis, although relatively recently introduced as a concept in specialty literature and among digestive diseases, presents an increasingly high incidence in the pediatric population. It represents a complex pathology, a chronic immune-mediated inflammatory disorder, with various phenotypes and symptomatology, depending on age. This pathology may cause severe complications, such as esophageal strictures, which are associated with an increased risk of impaction of food in the esophagus. The quality of life of these children is often low and, unfortunately, the consequences of this disease will persist even in the adult life.
