Fluoroscopic findings in pediatric eosinophilic esophagitis
TL;DR: Fluoroscopic studies are not a sensitive method to diagnose EE because nearly half of the studies are normal and findings that have been described in the setting of EE such as food impaction, a ringed esophagus, a small-caliber esphagus and esophageal stricture do not occur with a high enough frequency to reliably make a diagnosis.

K. P. Basavaraju,Terry Wong +1 more
TL;DR: Therapeutic options include avoidance of dietary allergens, topical or systemic steroids, Montelukast, Mepolizumab (anti‐IL‐5 antibody) and endoscopic dilation of strictures unresponsive to medical therapy.

Which Patients with Eosinophilic Esophagitis (EoE) Should Receive Elemental Diets Versus Other Therapies
TL;DR: Elementary diet, although not an ideal first-line therapy for EoE, provides insight into the etiology of unusual or refractory Eosinophilic esophagitis, and the contribution of unusual food antigens to EOE may be determined via the use of amino-acid-based formulas in patients with EoEs.

Esophageal Eosinophilia with Dysphagia A Distinct Clinicopathologic Syndrome
TL;DR: The presence of high concentrations of IEE in esophageal biopsies from patients with dysphagia, normal endoscopy, and normal 24-hr esophagal pH monitoring represents a distinctive clinicopathologic syndrome not previously described.
