Hypereosinophilic syndrome and myocardial fibrosis

Abstract

A 62-year-old man was accepted to our institution because of hypereosinophilia, severe tricuspid regurgitation and isolated right restrictive myocardiopathy, with thrombi inside the right atrium and ventricle. Based on the diagnosis of hypereosinophilic syndrome plus eosinophilic myocarditis, the patient underwent a tricuspid valve repair and endomyocardiectomy. We briefly discuss hypereosinophilic syndrome myocardiopathy, and its management.
