Summary

Eosinophilic Esophagitis (EoE) is a immuno-mediated disease, characterised by a Th-2 food-antigen driven chronic inflammatory response of the esophagus. Main symptoms are dysphagia and food bolus impaction, frequently overlapping with most atypical and general symptoms like heartburn or regurgitation and difficulty to thrive in children. Overall incidence and prevalence of EoE are rapidly increasing. The complete comprehension of pathogenetic and molecular mechanism underlying this complex and relatively new disease is still to be conquered. For this reason, we created this EoE Biobank, in order to collect blood, oral and esophageal tissue samples of proven EoE patients to further exploit new insights of this disease.
