    The idiopathic hypereosinophilic syndrome is a disorder characterized by hypereosiophilia that is associated with eosinophil-based tissue or organ damage. While almost any organ or tissue may be damaged, the lung, skin, heart, blood vessels, sinuses, kidneys, and brain are the most commonly affected. [ 7 ]

    The age-adjusted incidence of hypereosinophilic syndrome/chronic eosinophilic leukemia reported by the International Classification of Diseases for Oncology (Version 3) is ~0.036 per 100,000 with the mean frequency of FIP1L1-PDGFRA gene fusions occurring in ~10% of patients with hypereosinophilia as detected in developed countries. The fused ...

    It can arise de novo or may develop in patients having the chronic form of a hypereosinophilic syndrome. Patients with acute eosinophilic leukemia have a propensity for developing bronchospasm as well as symptoms of the acute coronary syndrome and/or heart failure due to eosinophilic myocarditis and eosinophil-based endomyocardial fibrosis.
