No mucosal abnormality was detected on gastroduodenoscopy and colonoscopy. A double-balloon enteroscopy revealed mucosal inflammation in the jejunum and a biopsy was taken. In this biopsy, eosinophilic jejunitis was detected. He was given corticosteroids and montelukast and his condition was resolved promptly. After discharge, he had attacks of EG until he quit smoking. After quitting smoking, he had an attack once in the last 2 years after consuming eggplant.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1136\/bcr-2024-261123","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,9,4]],"date-time":"2024-09-04T01:01:24Z","timestamp":1725411684000},"page":"e261123","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1136\/crossmarkpolicy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["Eosinophilic jejunitis presenting as acute abdomen with eosinophilic ascites"],"prefix":"10.1136","volume":"17","author":[{"given":"Eren","family":"Yal\u00e7\u0131n","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Internal Medicine, Dokuz Eylul Universitesi, Izmir, Turkey"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-4032-9209","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"H\u00fcseyin","family":"D\u00f6ngelli","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Internal Medicine, Dokuz Eylul Universitesi, Izmir, Turkey"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"S\u00fcleyman","family":"Dolu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department Of Gastroenterology, Dokuz Eylul Universitesi, Izmir, Turkey"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Mesut","family":"Akarsu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department Of Gastroenterology, Dokuz Eylul Universitesi, Izmir, Turkey"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"239","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,9,3]]},"reference":[{"key":"2025082708172130000_17.9.e261123.1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"36","DOI":"10.1097\/MPG.0000000000000865","article-title":"Prevalence of Eosinophilic Gastritis, Gastroenteritis, and Colitis: Estimates From a National Administrative Database","volume":"62","author":"Jensen","year":"2016","journal-title":"J Pediatr Gastroenterol Nutr"},{"key":"2025082708172130000_17.9.e261123.2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"183","DOI":"10.1159\/000369540","article-title":"Eosinophilic Enteritis","volume":"33","author":"Pineton de Chambrun","year":"2015","journal-title":"Dig Dis"},{"key":"2025082708172130000_17.9.e261123.3","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"E145","DOI":"10.1111\/ans.16195","article-title":"Eosinophilic enteritis presenting as an acute small bowel obstruction","volume":"91","author":"Kant","year":"2021","journal-title":"ANZ J Surg"},{"key":"2025082708172130000_17.9.e261123.4","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","DOI":"10.1093\/dote\/doab060","article-title":"Trends and predictors of 30-day readmissions in subjects with eosinophilic esophagitis: results from a national cohort","volume":"35","author":"Srinivasan","year":"2022","journal-title":"Dis Esophagus"},{"key":"2025082708172130000_17.9.e261123.5","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"899","DOI":"10.1097\/CM9.0000000000002511","article-title":"Eosinophilic gastroenteritis: Pathogenesis, diagnosis, and treatment","volume":"136","author":"Li","year":"2023","journal-title":"Chin Med J (Engl)"},{"key":"2025082708172130000_17.9.e261123.6","first-page":"110","article-title":"Causes of eosinophilic ascites - A systematic review","volume":"57","author":"Pinte","year":"2019","journal-title":"Rom J Intern Med"},{"key":"2025082708172130000_17.9.e261123.7","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.gie.2005.10.004"},{"key":"2025082708172130000_17.9.e261123.8","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"377","DOI":"10.1159\/000369966","article-title":"Eosinophilic jejunitis presenting as intractable abdominal pain","volume":"8","author":"Mungan","year":"2014","journal-title":"Case Rep Gastroenterol"},{"key":"2025082708172130000_17.9.e261123.9","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"410","DOI":"10.1007\/BF02892549","article-title":"Idiopathic eosinophilic jejunitis","volume":"39","author":"Kumar","year":"1972","journal-title":"Indian J Pediatr"}],"container-title":["BMJ Case Reports"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/syndication.highwire.org\/content\/doi\/10.1136\/bcr-2024-261123","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2025,8,27]],"date-time":"2025-08-27T15:17:27Z","timestamp":1756307847000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/casereports.bmj.com\/lookup\/doi\/10.1136\/bcr-2024-261123"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2024,9]]},"references-count":9,"journal-issue":{"issue":"9","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,9,3]]},"published-print":{"date-parts":[[2024,9]]}},"alternative-id":["10.1136\/bcr-2024-261123"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1136\/bcr-2024-261123","relation":{},"ISSN":["1757-790X"],"issn-type":[{"value":"1757-790X","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2024,9]]}}}
