To compare endoscopic and histologic features of pediatric patients with eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) responding to proton pump inhibitor (PPI) to those not responding to PPI.Endoscopic reports and photographs of patients with symptoms of esophageal OBJECTIVE
Recently the Endoscopic Reference Score (EREFS) for endoscopic assessment of eosinophilic esophagitis was introduced, with good interobserver agreement for most signs. The EREFS has not yet been evaluated by other investigators and intraobserver agreement has not been assessed. The aim of
OBJECTIVE
The goal of this review is to present and summarize studies on endoscopic findings in eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE), at diagnosis and in response to treatment, utilizing rigorous peer-reviewed literature in children wherever possible and to introduce a recently proposed standardized
Esophagitis may present endoscopically with erythema, edema, loss of vascular pattern, friability, and ulceration of the esophageal mucosa. Left untreated, chronic esophagitis may result in stricture formation. The presence of multiple concentric rings involving the entire esophagus has been cited
Eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) was first described by Landis in 1978. The disease is characterized by esophageal symptoms, primarily dysphagia in adult patients, and esophageal eosinophilic infiltration. The disease is associated with characteristic endoscopic findings, including edema, rings,
Eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) is an important cause of upper gastrointestinal dysfunction in children and adults. The EoE-quality of life (QOL)-A was validated as a disease-specific measure of quality of life in EoE. This study characterized the extent of QOL concerns in a cohort of adult EoE
OBJECTIVE
Esophageal eosinophilia (EE) is the most important finding for the diagnosis of eosinophilic esophagitis. We conducted the present retrospective study to clarify the most suitable site of the esophagus to examine for EE detection.
METHODS
We enrolled 4999 subjects who underwent upper
BACKGROUND
Endoscopy has a key role in establishing the diagnosis of eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE), but endoscopic features of EoE might not be well known.
METHODS
All patients aged 18 or older who were diagnosed with EoE from 2008 to 2013 were systematically identified retrospectively and findings
Background & aims: The eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) endoscopic reference score (EREFS) was developed to analyze adults with EoE and has been successfully applied to a pediatric cohort. The present study compares EREFS scores in
OBJECTIVE
Eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) is assessed endoscopically (endoscopic activity), based on grades of edema, rings, exudates, furrows, and strictures (EREFS). We examined variations in endoscopic assessments of severity, developed and validated 3 EREFS-based scoring systems, and assessed
OBJECTIVE
(1) To describe the incidence of eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) in the population of patients undergoing esophagoscopy with biopsy by a pediatric otolaryngology service. (2) To elucidate the demographics, presenting symptoms, and endoscopic findings in children with EoE.
METHODS
Case
Eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) is an immune or antigen-mediated chronic inflammatory esophageal disorder that is relatively rare in Asian countries. The main symptoms of EoE are dysphagia and food impaction. Although chest pain is a symptom of EoE, it is also a symptom of coronary heart disease.
BACKGROUND
Eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) is a chronic antigen-mediated disease histologically characterized by eosinophil-predominant inflammation. One-third of patients respond to proton pump inhibitor (PPI) treatment; this group is identified as having PPI-responsive esophageal eosinophilia
Recent consensus guidelines define eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) as a chronic, immune/antigen-mediated esophageal disease characterized clinically by symptoms related to esophageal dysfunction and histologically by eosinophil-predominant inflammation. Adults with EoE typically present with
OBJECTIVE
Pediatric eosinophilic esophagitis (EE) typically presents with dysphagia, vomiting, dyspepsia, or food impaction. The purpose of this study was to highlight the emerging association of pediatric EE and airway disease. An additional goal of this study was to describe the unique
