Eosinophilia: causes and pathobiology in persons with prior exposures in tropical areas with an emphasis on parasitic infections.

Abstract

Eosinophilia in patients exposed to tropical or subtropical environments is caused most commonly by helminth (worm) infections. Besides a detailed exposure history, the diagnostic approach must consider other infections and noninfectious causes of eosinophilia, as treatments for many of these disorders differ.
