Eosinophilic gastroenteritis (EGE) is a relatively rare disease, but it should be considered whenever a patient presents with unexplained gastrointestinal symptoms that cannot be explained by parasitic infection or other gastrointestinal diseases characterized by eosinophilic infiltration. A high coexistence of EGE and allergic diseases has been documented. Diagnosis of EGE is based primarily on clinical, endoscopic, and histopathological findings. Glucocorticosteroids and other immunomodulatory drugs are the mainstay of treatment, but currently the greatest hope lies in biological drugs, which are undergoing intensive research. This disease is troublesome for the patient and significantly reduces the quality of life.
嗜酸性粒细胞性胃肠炎（EGE）是一种相对罕见的疾病，但每当患者出现无法用寄生虫感染或其他以嗜酸性粒细胞浸润为特征的胃肠道疾病解释的不明原因胃肠道症状时，都应考虑该病。EGE与过敏性疾病的高共存性已有文献记载。EGE的诊断主要基于临床、内镜和组织病理学检查结果。糖皮质激素和其他免疫调节药物是主要治疗手段，但目前最大的希望在于生物药物，相关研究正在紧锣密鼓地进行。这种疾病给患者带来困扰，显著降低生活质量。
