In this paper we present a five-generation kindred with familial eosinophilia, associated with valvular heart disease in one of seven members of the second generation, four of sixteen members of the third generation, four of thirty-one members of the fourth generation, and two of twenty members of the fifth generation;the clinical features of the two members of the first generation are unavailable. Of a total of 48 members, 26 had eosinophilia, with counts ranging from 1761 to 6045 cells/mm3, with apparent autosomal dominant propagation;this confirms the experience of the authors of previous studies on this condition. Genetic analysis on eight members, which we reported in an earlier paper [1], revealed a pericentric inversion of chromosome 10 in two members. The entity of familial eosinophilia has been generally considered benign. However, the clinical presentation of this kindred was unusual in that valvular and endocardial damage, was frequent findings, without apparent involvement of the other organs and tissues. Mitral valve damage leading to both stenosis and regurgitation and requiring mitral valve replacement was noted in the index patient. This unique presentation may suggest that in patients with mitral valve disease, if blood eosinophilia is noted, it could point to a non-rheumatic etiology, thus a possible opportunity for treatment to prevent further damage to the heart. This recommendation may be even more timely, as many effective treatments are now available to treat even high-grade hypereosinophilia.
