Parental perception of anxiety in children with eosinophilic esophagitis in a tertiary care center

Eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) is a chronic, immune-mediated, atopic disease characterized by eosinophil infiltration into the esophageal epithelium, resulting in fibrosis and dysfunction.1 During the past 20 years, its prevalence has increased exponentially in children in Western countries up to 50.5 in 10,000, which is similar to that of pediatric inflammatory bowel disease.1 The pediatric population presents with a broad spectrum of symptoms that vary with age. These, in ascending order of age, include feeding difficulty, failure to thrive, acid reflux, vomiting, abdominal pain, dysphagia, and food impaction; in contrast, adults primarily present with dysphagia and food impaction.
