title: [Diffuse eosinophilic gastroenteropathy].
abstract: Eosinophilic gastroenterocolitis is a very rare disease of the gastrointestinal tract. As a result, frequently the diagnosis is missed and/or symptoms get misinterpreted. Histological examination and blood analysis however support the finding of the correct diagnosis in most cases. We report here the case of a 47 year old female patient with diffuse gastroenterocolitis and we will comment the diagnostic problems.
