Abstract

The eosinophil is a cell with specific protective and beneficial functions but in some circumstances it acts as a mediator in different physiopathologic processes. Increased periphery blood counts (more than 500 cells/cubic mm) should always be investigated since they may be the earliest indication of a disease or represent an important diagnostic guide.
