Diagnosis of Hypereosinophilic Syndrome with Cardiac Involvement in a Patient with Cough and Exertional Dyspnea

Öz

Hypereosinophilic syndrome (HES) defines a heterogeneous disease spectrum with multiorgan involvement, in which the eosinophil count in the peripheral blood is above 1500/mm3 and any parasitic, allergic and other secondary cause that may cause eosinophilia cannot be identified. HES can cause multi-organ damage and dysfunction, primarily involving the skin, heart, lungs, gastrointestinal tract, and nervous system. Cardiac involvement is a cause of high morbidity and mortality. In this article, a case with peripheral eosinophilia who presented with cough and exertional dyspnea and was diagnosed with HES with cardiac involvement in the evaluation is presented in the light of the literature.

Öksürük ve Efor Dispnesi Olan Hastada Kardiyak Tutulumlu Hipereozinofilik SendromTanısı

Öz

Hipereozinofilik sendrom (HES) periferik kanda eozinofil sayısının 1500/mm3 üzerinde olduğu ve eozinofiliye sebep olabilecek parazitik, allerjik ve diğer ikincil bir sebebin ortaya konamadığı, multiorgan tutulumları ile seyreden heterojen bir hastalık spektrumunu tanımlar. HES başta cilt, kalp, akciğer, gastrointestinal sistem ve sinir sistemini tutan çoklu organ hasarına ve işlev bozukluğuna neden olabilir. Kardiyak tutulum ise yüksek oranda morbidite ve mortalite nedenidir. Bu yazıda, öksürük ve efor dispnesi ile başvuran ve yapılan değerlendirmede kardiyak tutulumlu HES tanısı alan, tam kan sayımında eozinofilisi olan bir olgu literatürde yer alan bilgiler eşliğinde sunulmaktadır.
