Chronic eosinophilic leukemia – Not otherwise specified with literature review

Abstract

Chronic eosinophilic leukemia not otherwise specified (CEL NOS) is a rare disorder with hypereosinophilia and an increased number of blood or bone marrow blasts (<20%) or an evidence of eosinophilic clonality. It constitutes a new entity in the 2008 revised World Health Organization classification (WHO). We report a case of CEL NOS in an 18 year old male who presented with extensive thromboembolism.
