Abstract
Eosinophilicmyentericganglionitis is an uncommon myenteric plexus inflammatory neuropathy with characteristic eosinophilic infiltration with or without hypoganglionosis. In our case, a full-term female newborn delivered via cesarean section had a delayed meconium transit, abdominal distension, and vomiting .Imaging findings showed the multiple dilated bowel loops. Microscopic analysis of the biopsy obtained from the rectosigmoid area shows presence of eosinophils in between the plexus fibres mainly around the ganglion cells.These features were consistent with the diagnosis of EosinophilicMyentericGanglionitis.
