A variety of skin disorders have been associated with HES, although there are no previous reports of HES associated with cutaneous infarction. HES is a rare disorder characterized by a sustained overproduction of eosinophils and multisystem disease. The aetiology of the eosinophilia remains uncertain but clonal populations of abnormal T-cells producing
interleukin 5
may be implicated.
