Abstract
Hyperimmunoglobulin E syndrome and botryomycosis are both uncommon disorders. This report describes the case of an 8 year old boy in whom these two disorders coexist, who presented with hypereosinophilia, and elevated immunoglobulin E and was initially diagnosed as idiopathic hypereosinophilia. He was finally diagnosed as hyperimmunoglobulin E syndrome with the development of cutaneous and visceral botryomycosis under steroid treatment.
