Abstract

Eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) is a common cause of swallowing difficulties in both children and adults. The incidence of EoE has been increasing over the past decades, which cannot be solely attributed to improved diagnostic techniques. EoE is more common in adults than in children. The diagnosis is confirmed by a biopsy from the esophageal mucosa showing a significant infiltration of eosinophils. Many patients respond to treatment with proton pump inhibitors, but those with severe EoE may require dietary modifications, topical steroids, and/or dilation of esophageal strictures. This review covers the incidence, risk factors, natural course, diagnosis, and treatment options for EoE, both within the Icelandic healthcare system andi n a broader context.

[冰岛和国际背景下的成人嗜酸性粒细胞食管炎 (EoE)]。
嗜酸性粒细胞食管炎(EoE)是导致儿童和成人吞咽困难的常见原因。过去几十年来,嗜酸性粒细胞食管炎的发病率一直在上升,这不能完全归因于诊断技术的改进。与儿童相比,EoE 在成人中更为常见。食管粘膜活检显示大量嗜酸性粒细胞浸润即可确诊。许多患者对质子泵抑制剂的治疗有反应,但严重的食管炎患者可能需要调整饮食、局部使用类固醇和/或扩张食管狭窄。本综述涵盖了冰岛医疗保健系统和更广泛背景下的食管水肿的发病率、风险因素、自然病程、诊断和治疗方案。
