Core Tip Eosinophilic oesophagitis (EO) is a clinical entity that is becoming more frequent in patients seeking medical attention for food bolus obstruction (FBO). The main symptom in adult patients is dysphagia. Various studies have shown the presence of EO in 20% to 54% of the patients presenting with food bolus impaction. Approximately one in three patients who presents with FBO has EO. Biopsies should be performed routinely at index endoscopy in order to pursue this treatable cause of long term morbidity.
