Milk-sensitive eosinophilic gastroenteritis in a 10-day-old boy.
1990
Eosinophilic gastroenteropathy in children is a rare, idiopathic disease characterized by eosinophilic infiltration of the gastrointestinal tract. We describe a 10-day-old boy with aspecific clinical manifestations (unconsolable crying). Treatment with a semi-elemental diet was successful, suggesting a “milk-sensitive enteropathy”, although he had been exclusively breast fed. Recent literature is reviewed.
