Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Eosinophilic gastrointestinal disorders are a group of disorders characterized by the pathologic eosinophilic infiltration of various organs of the gastrointestinal tract, the esophagus, stomach, small intestine, and the colon. Pathological eosinophilic infiltration may cause symptoms such as dysphagia, food impaction, dyspepsia, abdominal pain, diarrhea, heartburn, abdominal pain, and vomiting in children. These disorders are considered immune-mediated chronic inflammatory disorders with strong links to food allergen triggers. Recent years have witnessed significant advances in basic science research, clinical diagnosis, and the management of eosinophilic gastrointestinal disorders. Treatment strategies focus on either medical or dietary therapy. The main aim of this Special Issue is to shed light on the clinical presentation, pathophysiology, diagnosis, and treatment of these increasingly recognized disorders.
