Concurrent Challenges in Idiopathic Hypereosinophilic Syndrome Complicating Beta-Thalassemia Major: A Case Report.
Curēus 2024 March
This case report highlights the uncommon idiopathic hypereosinophilic syndrome (HES) complicating beta-thalassemia major, presenting a diagnostic and management challenge. Beta-thalassemia major, characterized by impaired beta-globin synthesis, necessitates regular blood transfusions and iron chelation therapy. HES, a rare disorder marked by persistent eosinophilia, adds complexity to the clinical course. We present the case of a 27-year-old male with beta-thalassemia major who developed fever, weakness, and weight loss and was subsequently diagnosed with HES. Treatment involved antibiotics, blood transfusions, and corticosteroids, leading to clinical improvement. This case underscores the need to further understand the relationship between thalassemia and eosinophilia and the importance of comprehensive evaluation in patients with overlapping hematological disorders.
