Computed tomography (CT) reveals characteristic features of eosinophilic enteritis, aiding in diagnosis. These CT findings help assess disease extent and location, distinguishing it from tumors.

Area of Science:

  • Gastroenterology
  • Radiology
  • Pathology

Background:

  • Eosinophilic enteritis is an uncommon gastrointestinal disorder.
  • Accurate diagnosis relies on integrating clinical, endoscopic, and histopathological findings.
  • CT imaging's role in characterizing eosinophilic enteritis remains under-explored.

Observation:

  • This study details CT features in four confirmed cases of eosinophilic enteritis.
  • The small intestine (jejunum, ileum) and colon were affected.
  • Two distinct patterns were observed: mucosal and subserosal.

Findings:

  • Common CT findings included bowel wall thickening, fold thickening, and luminal narrowing.
  • Specific observations included intra-luminal granulomas, enhancing extra-luminal granulomas with necrosis, and mesenteric lymphadenopathy.

  • Ascites was present in one case.

    • Implications:

    • CT findings suggest an inflammatory process, differentiating it from malignancy.
    • CT is valuable for assessing disease extent and location.
    • Combined with clinical data, CT aids in diagnosing eosinophilic enteritis.
