Abstract
Perforated eosinophilic colitis.This is the presentation of a perforated eosinophilic colitis’s case which required surgical handle and was confirmed the diagnosis with biopsy and had a satisfactory evolution.Eosinophilic enteritis is a disorder that involves the gastrointestinal tract secondary to eosinophils infiltration of its layers and form part of an emerging disease complex. It was described recently and presents a wide range of symptoms, mimics and simulates highest incidence diagnosis and therefore more suspected. Currently, it is one of the possibilities to evaluate in patients with gut pathology, a wide range that include those that need symptomatic handle and studies for its etiological determination, and in the other side those which required surgical treatment establish the diagnosis later on.
Key words: Eosinophilia. Colitis. Gastrointestinal diseases.
