The hypereosinophilic syndrome.
The hypereosinophilic syndrome is a spectrum of clinical disorders characterized by leukocytosis and marked eosinophilia without definable cause. Clinical symptoms and radiographic findings are most often due to congestive heart failure, although parenchymal lung infiltrates from the eosinophilia itself may be seen. Four documented cases with chest radiographs are presented.
