S1885 Eosinophilic Esophagitis: Counting of the Numbers of Eosinophils in the Three Segments of the Esophagus and Clinical Aspects

(42.8% [95% CI: 26.3% to 60.6%] vs. 28.5% [95% CI: 3.7% to 71%]), and a higher rate of eczema (42.8% [95% CI: 26.3% to 60.6%] vs. 14% [95% CI: 0.4% to 57.9%]). No differences in allergic rhinitis or immediate systemic food hypersensitivity were measured between EoE and GERD patients. Conclusion: We conclude that children referred to a multidisciplinary GI/allergy EoE program with EoE had a higher incidence of overall comorbid allergic disease, including asthma and eczema, but not allergic rhinitis or immediate systemic food hypersensitivity in comparison to those with GERD alone.
