Eosinophilic gastroenteropathy is a rare gastrointestinal disorder characterized by an abnormal accumulation of eosinophils, a type of white blood cell, in the gastrointestinal tract, leading to inflammation and damage. Symptoms can include abdominal pain, diarrhea, nausea, and weight loss, often resembling other gastrointestinal conditions. The exact cause is unclear, but it may involve allergic reactions or immune system dysregulation. Treatment typically focuses on dietary modifications and medications to reduce inflammation and eosinophil levels.
