[Pathomorphological criteria and features of immune response in eosinophilic esophagitis and reflux esophagitis].

The use of the EoEHSS histological rating scale for eosinophilic esophagitis is effective in the differential diagnosis of EoE and EC. Predominant cells in intraepithelial infiltrate are CD3+ T-lymphocytes both in EoE and RE, CD8+ cells prevail over CD4+ cells. In EoE intraepithelial count of CD3+ T-lymphocytes is 1.93 times more, count of intraepithelial CD4+ lymphocytes is 1.84 times more and count of CD8+ lymphocytes is 2.19 times more than in RE.
