Abstract

 Background and Objectives Eosinophilic Esophagitis is a disorder whose incidence has been reported to be on the rise in the west. There is an overlap between symptoms of GERD and EE but the treatments for these differ markedly. Morover, EE is associated with atopy. So this study was designed to estimate its prevalence in a selected group of patients who presented with the symptoms consistent with EE. These symptoms were evaluated with the following objectives:· To assess if EE could be responsible for some of the cases of chronic cough of unexplained etiology.·To assess what proportion of GERD patients has evidence of underlying EE.
