Eosinophilic myocarditis due to parasitic infection: A case-based minireview

Figure 2 Eosinophilic activation and myocardial infiltration in the context of parasitic infection. A: Bone marrow smear from the patient reveals a markedly increased number of eosinophils, as demonstrated on the peripheral blood film, suggesting eosinophilic hyperplasia; B: Schematic illustration of the proposed pathophysiological mechanism: Parasitic infection triggers immune activation, leading to eosinophil proliferation and activation. Activated eosinophils subsequently infiltrate the myocardium, contributing to tissue inflammation and injury.
