Case ReportsMarked eosinophilia induced by nafamostat mesilate, an anticoagulant in a hemodialysis patient.
A 61-year-old Japanese female on hemodialysis developed marked eosinophilia induced by nafamostat mesilate as an anticoagulant for hemodialysis. This is the first case of hypereosinophilic syndrome induced by nafamostat mesilate in a hemodialysis patient. ⋯ This eosinophilia was eliminated after cessation of nafamostat mesilate. We confirmed that the cause of this eosinophilia was nafamostat mesilate by using the challenge test.
