Background: Eosinophilia is associated with various primary and reactive conditions. The incidence and causes of eosinophilia might have changed through time according to the changes in the incidence of diseases such as cancer, chronic degenerative diseases, and so forth. This study was sought to investigate the causes and the incidence of hypereosinophilia and compare the results with those obtained by other reports in Korea. Methods: Eosinophilia and hypereosinophilia are diagnosed when the absolute eosinophil count is greater than 500/μL and 1,500/μL, respectively. Patient's clinical records were reviewed to determine the underlying clinical conditions in relation to what causes hypereosinophilia. Results: Out of 18,941 patients who undertook hematology profiles, 1,584 (8.4%) and 143 (0.75%) were found to have eosinophilia and hypereosinophilia, respectively. Among patients with hypereosinophilia, 106 patients (74.1%) had identifiable and/or possible causes. The major causes of hypereosinophilia were malignancy (48.1%), allergy and skin diseases (22.6%), infectious diseases (9.4%), gastrointestinal tract diseases (5.7%), and hepatobiliary diseases (4.7%). Conclusion: We found various causes of hypereosinophilia in this study, and the most common cause of hypereosinophilia was malignancy. Therefore, a thorough study in patients with hypereosinophilia is necessary.
