| eosinophilia |
A group of conditions having the characteristic elevation of eosinophils. These somewhat mysterious granulocytic leukocytes are definitely involved in parasite resistance, seem to initiate strong inflammation under some conditions, can facilitate clotting by inhibiting heparin, yet also are a part of the process of healing and inflammation control as an infection winds down. ...

| eosinophil |
A white cell of the category known as granulocytes. These cells contain numerous dense granules in their cytoplasm that comprise a battery of highly active digestive chemicals and toxins. Their chief role is thought to be in combatting large parasites, although occasionally their activity may be triggered by other agents, potentially leading to damage of normal tissues (see eosinophilia myalgia syndrome).

| eosinophilia |
Patients with elevated eosinophil counts that do not have a known cause for this alteration, such as a parasitic infection or allergic disorder, were classified as having a hypereosinophilic syndrome of unknown cause. It is now understood that some have a leukemic basis for the eosinophil increase. Thus, some patients with high blood eosinophil counts have eosinophilic leukemia. The chronic form of eosinophilic leukemia is uncommon. The acute form is rare.
