| Core Tip |
In this review, we will discuss recent challenges and discoveries in eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE). While current treatment options are limited, mainly dietary therapy and steroids, we will highlight emerging therapeutics targeting pathogenic mechanisms of the disease. Although EoE is an allergy-mediated disease, the overlapping features of EoE and gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) present a diagnostic quandary in distinguishing the two disorders. EoE and GERD are not mutually exclusive and might share a complex relationship. We will review how proton pump inhibitor (PPI)s might exert therapeutic effects in EoE, and why a PPI response does not provide clear diagnostic distinction between EoE and GERD.
