A Rare Presentation of Hypereosinophilic Syndrome With Loffler's Endomyocarditis, Encephalopathy, and Multiple Thromboembolic Strokes

Idiopathic hypereosinophilic syndrome is a disorder with a high eosinophilic count for which no identifiable cause is evident. Herein we report a case of a 47-year-old male with a background history of hypereosinophilia, who presented with sudden onset altered level of consciousness and drowsiness for 1-day duration associated with a gradual onset progressive memory loss for 1-month duration. Based on clinical, biochemical, and imaging studies, a diagnosis of Loffler's endomyocarditis was made for which he was treated with albendazole with diethylcarbamazine along with high-dose steroids. He made a successful recovery after 2 months of treatment.
