title: Budd-Chiari syndrome associated with 5q deletion and hypereosinophilia.
abstract: Budd-Chiari syndrome was associated with a 5q deletion syndrome and hypereosinophilia in a 50-year-old woman. There may be a link between these syndromes and gene deletion on chromosome 5, particularly the IL-5 gene, which regulates eosinophils.
