Hematologic Malignancies Identified in Patients with Hypereosinophilia and Hypereosinophilic Syndromes

The development of hematologic malignancies in this referral population with eosinophilia was rare (0.2%), but more common in those with hypereosinophilia (5.1%). Non-Hodgkin's lymphomas, particularly T-cell-derived malignancies, were most commonly diagnosed. Patients with preexisting hypereosinophilia were diagnosed with hematologic conditions that were rarer within the general population.
