Caso clínico:  paciente de 28 años, género femenino, de raza blanca, con antecedentes personales de atopia, rinitis alérgica, dermatitis, diarreas ocasionales y asma, por la cual ha estado ingresada en varias ocasiones; además presenta antecedentes familiares de asma bronquial. Refiere que estas alteraciones comenzaron a los 17 años, y desde allí fue asistida por varios especialistas. Hace 10 meses presentó disfagia, la cual fue en aumento, dolor torácico y abdominal, pirosis y pérdida de peso. En el examen físico presentó sibilancias diseminadas en ambos campos pulmonares. El estudio analítico completo y los exámenes imagenológicos resultaron normales. La endoscopia y la biopsia esofágica mostraron los elementos compatibles con esofagitis eosinofílica. El tratamiento se realizó con esteroides orales, monteleukast e inhibidores de la bomba de protones, que mostraron resultados excelentes.  Conclusiones:  la esofagitis eosinofílica es una enfermedad de la que todavía existe un gran desconocimiento. Es más común en niños, hombres jóvenes de raza blanca, y la cual, por lo regular, tiene un componente atópico marcado. En la adultez se manifiesta por disfagia e impactación de los alimentos. Para el diagnóstico de una esofagitis eosinofílica tiene que haber síntomas de disfunción esofágica, más de 15 eosinófilos por campo, falta de respuesta a los inhibidores de la bomba de protones y exclusión del reflujo gastroesofágico. Dependiendo de cada caso, el paciente debe ser tratado de forma multidisciplinaria por gastroenterólogos, alergólogos, inmunólogos y nutriólogos.]]></p></abstract>
<abstract abstract-type="short" xml:lang="en"><p><![CDATA[Abstract  Objective: We present the first case of eosinophilic esophagitis (EE) reported in our country in fifty-three years.  Clinical Case: The patient was 28-year-old white woman with a personal history of atopy, allergic rhinitis, dermatitis and occasional diarrhea and asthma. She had relatives with bronchial asthma and had been admitted to hospitals several times previously. According to the patient, these alterations began at age 17, and she had seen several specialists since that time. Ten months prior to this admission, increasingly severe dysphagia accompanied by chest and abdominal pain, heartburn and weight loss began. Upon physical examination, wheezing was evident in both lung fields. The complete analytical study and imaging tests were all normal. Endoscopy and esophageal biopsy showed elements compatible with eosinophilic esophagitis. Excellent results were obtained from treatment with oral steroids, montelukast and proton pump inhibitors.  Conclusions: EE is still poorly understood. It is more common in children and young white men, and there is usually a marked atopic component. In adulthood it is manifested by dysphagia and impaction of food. To diagnose EE there must be symptoms of esophageal dysfunction, more than 15 eosinophils per field, lack of response to proton pump inhibitors and exclusion of gastroesophageal reflux. Depending on the case, patients may require multidisciplinary treatment by gastroenterologists, allergists, immunologists and nutritionists.]]></p></abstract>
