“…Патч-тесты используются для диагностики ПА при эозинофильном эзофагите [15], энтероколите [16], атопи-ческом дерматите [17]. Метод заключается в наложении окклюзионной повязки с нанесенными на кожу пациента пищевыми аллергенами на 24 ч с последующей оценкой реакции (в виде эритемы и папул) через 24-72 ч.…”

Eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) is a clinico-pathological entity characterised by symptoms of esophageal dysfunction and eosinophilia on esophageal mucosal biopsies in the absence of other causes of esophageal eosinophilia. It is a chronic inflammatory condition of esophagus often characterized by refractory reflux symptoms in children and dysphagia in adults. It occurs as a result of Th2 inflammatory response to environmental triggers (food antigens) in genetically predisposed individuals. The diagnostic criteria include symptoms of esophageal dysfunction, esophageal eosinophilia (> 15/hpf), and a PPI trial (persistent eosinophilia after 8 weeks of PPI). Mainstay of treatment at present is topical steroids and dietary therapy.Maintenance treatment should be considered to prevent long term complications.

“…Predictive values for both skin prick test (SPT) and atopy patch test (APT) have been reported [3,5,8]. However, APTs have not been standardized in an EoE population [9][10][11], and both SPT and APT may not be widely applicable [12].…”
