Abstract

Idiopathic hypereosinophilic syndrome (HES) is a rare clinical syndrome of unknown etiology causing multiorgan failure with eosinophilic infiltration characterized by eosinophilia. Thirty eight years old male admitted with pruritis, dyspnea, cough had multiple nodular lesions on chest radiograph was evaluated as malignancy at first. Lalboratory investigations revealed the diagnosis of idiopathic HES for the case who had eosinophilic count of 52800 (62.6%). Because of its interesting radiological appearance and rarity the case is presented in view of literature.

Özet

İdiyopatik hipereozinofilik sendrom(HES); sebebi bilinmeyen eozinofili ile birlikte, eozinofilik infiltrasyona bağlı çoklu organ yetersizliğine yol açan nadir bir klinik sendromdur. Kaşıntı, nefes darlığı,öksürük yakınması ile başvuran akciğer grafisinde multipıl nodüler lezyonlar olması nedeniyle malignite yönünde tetkik edilmesi planlanırken kanda eozinofil sayısı 52800(%62.6) olarak tespit edilen 38 yaşındaki erkek olguya yapılan tetkikler sonucunda idiyopatik HES tanısı konuldu. Nadiren görülmesi ve ilginç radyolojisi nedeniyle literatür eşliğinde sunuldu.
