Transient hypertrophic gastropathy in a child with similarity of radiographic and clinical features to Menetrier's disease is described. Distinction from Menetrier's disease is emphasized as the condition is characterized by abrupt onset, short duration, eosinophila and good prognosis. The association with hypersensitivity as a possible etiology is more suggestive in this condition. The radiographic changes will often provide the first clue to this condition and rapid reversal of the gastric changes is diagnostic.
