| Abstract: | Hypereosinophilic syndrome (HES) is characterized by persistent eosinophilia and eosinophil-mediated organ damage. Cardiac thrombosis and thromboembolic complications are common causes of morbidity and mortality in these patients. The echocardiogram is the first method of image in the assessment of cardiac involvement by HES. |
