Overview

Eosinophillic Cardiomyopathy also known as Loeffler's Syndrome is a type of restrictive cardiomyopathy caused by eosinophillic infiltration of the endomyocardium.[1] It is a feature of Hypereosinophilic Syndrome and occurs in 40-50% of all cases.[2] [3] Eosinophills enter the tissue and undergo degranulation; release cytotoxic proteins; increase production of reactive oxygen species, enzymes, growth factor, and cytokines.[4] This process leads to tissue damage and dysfunction, eventually leading to fibrosis and restrictive cardiomyopathy. There are 3 stages of the Eosinophilic cardiomyopathy:[5]

  • Stage 1: Acute necrotic stage
  • Stage 2: Mural thrombi/ thrombus formation
  • Stage 3: Fibrotic stage

There are many causes of Hyperesosinophilic Syndrome (HES) with Eosinophilic Cardiomyopathy, these can be classified as:

  • Reactive[6][7]
    • Eosinophillic Granulomatosis Polyangitis[8][9][10]
    • Parasitic Infection
    • Autoimmune disorder
    • Medication related [11]
  • Clonal Myeloid Disorder[12][13]
  • Idiopathic Hypereosinophillic Syndrome [14][15]

Historical Perspective

  • Eosinophillic Cardiomypoathy was first discovered by Wilhem Loeffler, a Swiss Physician, in 1936 during/following [event].[16] [17]

Classification

  • Eosinophilic Cardiomyopathy may be classified according to cause into three subtypes/groups:

Pathophysiology

  • The pathogenesis of Eosinophilic Cadiomyopathy is characterized by hypereosinophilia [24], thrombi formation [25], restrictive cardiomyopathy[26] [27], and heart failure [28].
  • The FLP1L1-PDGFRA fusion gene has been associated with the development chronic eosinophilic leukemia [29]and hypereosiniophilic syndrome.[30] [31]
  • The PDGFRa, PDGFRb, and PDGFR1 genes have been associated with the development of clonal myeloid disorders leading to hypereosiniophilic syndrome.[32] [33]
  • On gross pathology, cardiac hypertrophy and fibrosis are characteristic findings of Eosinophilic Cardiomyopathy.[34]
  • On microscopic histopathological analysis, hypereosinophilia, myocardial and myofibrillar disarray, and endoperimysial interstitial fibrosis are characteristic findings of Eosinophilic Cardiomyopathy.[35]

Clinical Features

Differentiating [disease name] from other Diseases

  • Eosinophilic Cardiomyopathy must be differentiated from other diseases that cause Cardiac hypertrophy, cardiac fibrosis, and Heart failure[41], such as:

Epidemiology and Demographics

  • The prevalence of Hypereosinophilic Syndrome is approximately 0.036 per 100,000 individuals worldwide. [45]

Age

  • Patients of all age groups may develop Eosinophilic Cardiomyopathy.[46]
  • Eosinopilic cardiomyopathy is more commonly observed among patients aged 20-50 years old.[47]

Gender

  • Men are more commonly affected with eosinophilic cadiomyopathy than Females.[48]
  • The Male to Female ratio is approximately 1.47. [49]

Race

  • There is no racial predilection for Eosinophilic Cardiomyopathy.

Risk Factors

  • Common risk factors in the development of Eosinophilic Cardiomyopathy are HLA Bw44 positivity, splenomegaly, thrombocytopenia, elevated vitamin B12 levels,

dysplastic eosinophils, and abnormal early myeloid precursors.[50]

Natural History, Complications and Prognosis

  • Some patients with Eosinophilic Cardiomyopathy may present asymptomatic.[51]
  • Early clinical features include dyspnea, fever, and chest pain.[52]
  • If left untreated, patients with Eosinophilic Cardiomyopathy may progress to develop heart failure, arrythmias, and sudden cardiac death.[53]
  • Prognosis is generally [excellent/good/poor], and the [1/5/10­year mortality/survival rate] of patients with [disease name] is approximately [#%].

Diagnosis

Diagnostic Criteria

  • The diagnosis of Hypereosinophilic syndrome is made when at least one of the following three diagnostic criteria are met:[54] [55]
  • an elevated eosinophil count (>1500/mm3) on 2 separate tests (≥1 mo)
  • tissue hypereosinophilia based on >20% eosinophils in a bone marrow section
  • marked disposition of eosinophilic granule proteins in tissue plus organ damage directly due to hypereosinophilia

Symptoms

  • Eosinophilic Cardiomyopathy is may present asymptomatic early in the course.[56]
  • Symptoms of Eosinophilc Cardiomypoathy may include the following:[57]
  • Fever
  • Dyspnea at rest or on exertion
  • Chest pain
  • Cough
  • Rash
  • Malaise

Physical Examination

  • Patients with Eosinophilic Cardiomyopathy usually appear distressed.
  • Physical examination may be remarkable for:[58]
  • Fever
  • Tachycardia
  • Tachypnea
  • Arrythmia
  • Rash
  • Embolic events

Laboratory Findings

  • A positive cardiac biopsy is diagnostic of eosinophilic cardiomyopathy.
  • An elevated concentration of eosinophils in peripheral blood smear is diagnostic of Hypereosinophilic syndrome.
  • Other laboratory findings consistent with the diagnosis of Eosinophilic cardiomyopathy include abnormal bone marrow biopsy, and abnormal troponins.

Imaging Findings

  • Cardiac MRI is the imaging modality of choice for Eosinophilic cardiomyopathy.[59]
  • On Cardiac MRI, Eosinophilic Cardiomyopathy is characterized by hyper-enhancement and thrombus formation. [60]
  • Echocardiography may demonstrate endomyocardial thickening, ventricular thrombus formation, and mitral valve involvment.[61]

Other Diagnostic Studies

  • Eosinophilic Cardiomyopathy may also be diagnosed using ECG.[62]
  • Findings on ECG include T wave inversion, Left atrial enlargement, Left ventricular hypertrophy, and Right bundle branch block.[63]

Treatment

Medical Therapy

  • The treatment of Eosinophilic Cardiomyopathy depends on the underlying cause.
  • The mainstay of therapy is supportive care.


  • The mainstay of therapy for Eosinophilic Cardiomyopathy with a FIP1L1-PDGFRA mutation is imatinib and steroids.[64]
  • Symptomatic management includes diuretics, Beta Blockers, ACE inhibitors, Angiotensin Receptor Blockers, and Digoxin.[65] [66]
  • Imatinib acts by inhibition of tyrosine kinase.[67]
  • Response to [medical therapy 1] can be monitored with [test/physical finding/imaging] every [frequency/duration].

Surgery

  • Surgery is the mainstay of therapy for [disease name].
  • [Surgical procedure] in conjunction with [chemotherapy/radiation] is the most common approach to the treatment of [disease name].
  • Valve replacement may be performed for patients with valvular damage in Eosinophilic Cardiomyopathy.[68]
  • Cardiac Transplant may be performed for patients with irreversible damage in Eosinophilic Cardiomyopathy.[69]

Prevention

  • There are no primary preventive measures available for [disease name].
  • Effective measures for the primary prevention of [disease name] include [measure1], [measure2], and [measure3].
  • Once diagnosed and successfully treated, patients with [disease name] are followed-up every [duration]. Follow-up testing includes [test 1], [test 2], and [test 3].
