The diagnosis of idiopathic hypereosinophilic syndrome was made three months later upon the classical criteria: a) blood eosinophilia of 1.5 G/L or more, persisting for more than 6 months; b) lack of evidence for any other recognised cause of eosinophilia: c) multiple organ systemic involvement: rheumatologic, cutaneous and digestive (pancreatitis, ascites and diarrhoea): d) previous history of allergic disease and increased plasmatic IgE levels; e) absence of leukemic markers.
