To investigate the diagnosis, pathological characteristics and clinical treatment of gastric eosinophilic granuloma (GEG). Twenty two cases with GEG diagnosed by operation and pathology were analyzed. In this series 14 cases subjected to partial gastrectomy, 6 cases to subtotal gastrectomy, 1 case to total gastrectomy, and 1 case to radical gastrectomy. After 1-10 years of follow-up, 1 case, who was combined with gastric carcinoma at the first operation, died of the recurrence and extensive metastasis of gastric carcinoma on the 4th year after operation, 2 cases were reoperated on the 2nd or 6th year respectively after operation for forward complication, and the others recoverd well. The authors consider that gastrofiberscopic diagnosis is key to lessen the preoperative misdiagnosis, and the scope of dissection mainly depends on the size and type of focus. It is no need for extensive dissection.
