Abstract:
Eosinophilic ascites is a manifestation of serosal eosinophilic gastrointestinal disease. We present a 44-year-old male with low serum ascites albumin gradient with high eosinophil count and contrast-enhanced computed tomography of the abdomen showing circumferential wall thickening of the esophagus, mid to distal ileal loops, and ascending colon. The patient was managed with tablet prednisolone 20 mg twice daily for two weeks, then gradual tapering over one month. The patient responded to treatment. Awareness of the condition, timely diagnosis, and early treatment carries excellent responses.
