Abstract:
Hypereosinophilia is the term given to a group of highly heterogeneous diseases that are characterized by an increase in the absolute count of peripheral eosinophils,which can accumulate in one or more organs.Although parasitic infection is one of the common causes of eosinophilia,it is often ignored.So far,no clear diagnostic guideline for hepatic sparganosis exists worldwide,and only scattered cases have been reported.We reported a case of a patient with hypereosinophilia induced by hepatic sparganosis,with multiple organ involvement,and discussed the clinical characteristics and treatment plan.This report will help clinicians better understand the differential diagnosis of hepatic sparganosis and the diagnosis and treatment of hypereosinophilia.
