Abstract:The occurrence of eosinophilic leukemia complicated with cardiogenic embolism and Löffler endocarditis are relatively rare.Early accurate diagnosis and prompt treatment can improve the its prognosis.When patients have symptoms of neurological impairment accompanied by increased eosinophils,the rare etiological type of cerebral infarction should be actively screened.Further improvements are needed in the examination of bone marrow smears,detection of fusion genes associated with leukemia,screening for Löffler endocarditis,and identification of intraventricular thrombi.In this case,the main manifestations of eosinophilic leukemia were cardiogenic embolism and Löffler endocarditis.After active treatment,the symptoms improved,and the eosinophil count returned to normal.This study summarizes the case data of this patient and combines it with a literature review,with the hope of raising clinicians'understanding of this rare disease.
