The etiological investigation of hypereosinophilia in 36 Europeans having returned from tropical zones permitted, by direct and indirect paraclinical tests, the diagnosis of helminthiasis in 26 cases (72.2%). The parasites in cause were bilharziosis, filariosis, strongyloidiasis, ankylostomiasis and liver flukes. Certain subjects were polyparasited. The investigation remained negative for 6 patients (16.6%), even though a parasitism was strongly suspected in at least 5 cases. In the other cases (11.1%) the etiological investigation remained doubtful with the exception of a case of non parasitic eosinophilia (polymyositis). There still remains much progress to make in rendering the actual serological tests more specific, more constant and presenting less cross reactions.
对36名从热带地区返回的欧洲人嗜酸性粒细胞增多症进行的病因调查，通过直接和间接的临床辅助检查，确诊26例（72.2%）为蠕虫病。致病寄生虫为血吸虫病、丝虫病、类圆线虫病、钩虫病和肝吸虫病。某些患者感染了多种寄生虫。6名患者（16.6%）的调查结果为阴性，尽管至少5例患者高度怀疑有寄生虫感染。在其他病例中（11.1%），除一例非寄生虫性嗜酸性粒细胞增多症（多发性肌炎）外，病因调查结果仍存疑。在提高现有血清学检测的特异性、稳定性和减少交叉反应方面仍有很大进展。
