Hypereosinophilia as a Preclinical Sign of Tongue Squamous Cell Cancer in a Gastric Cancer Patient with Complete Remission.
Although parasitic infestations and allergic disorders are the most common causes of eosinophilia it may also occompany malignant diseases. Many studies suggested that eosinophilia is related to tumor dissemination or necrosis. We are presenting a case; 10 months after gastric carcinoma operation who had severe eosinophilia with bone marrow and skin infiltration that gave response to steroid therapy. After three months, tongue squamous cell carsinoma as a second malignancy occurred in our patient that the eosinophilia could be the preclinical sign of the second cancer.
