Evidence to support the existence of eosinophilic leukemia (EL) as an autonomous eosinophilic proliferation analogous to other myeloproliferative disorders has been somewhat confusing. Partially obscuring the existence of EL as a distinct entity is the proposal that EL merely represents a clinically aggressive form of hypereosinophilic syndrome. This report details the clinical and pathologic findings in a case of EL. The presence of trisomy 8 and trisomy 21; morphologic, cytochemical, and ultrastructural findings of granular abnormalities and nuclear/cytoplasmic dysynchrony; and a clinical course similar to that of other myeloproliferative disorders support the existence of EL as a rare but distinct entity within the spectrum of myeloproliferative diseases.
