Abstract:
This case report highlights a 15-year-old girl diagnosed with Hypereosinophilic
Syndrome (HES) following a history of childhood eczema, asthma-like symptoms,
and persistent eosinophilia. Despite standard asthma treatment, including
inhaled steroids and oral prednisolone, the patient experienced recurrent
eosinophilia and respiratory exacerbations. After ruling out secondary causes
and diagnosing HES, the patient was successfully treated with benralizumab,
resulting in complete resolution of her respiratory and gastrointestinal
symptoms.
