{Abstract}: Eosinophilic enteritis is a rare subset of eosinophilic gastrointestinal disorders. It typically presents with chronic symptoms of abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and ascites. However, the clinical presentation can vary due to acute flare-ups. Here, we present a case of eosinophilic enteritis in a young female patient with intractable vomiting and diarrhea, mimicking acute gastroenteritis in the absence of other gastrointestinal symptoms. This case illustrates the challenge of diagnosing acute and diverse presentations of eosinophilic enteritis. It also highlights the importance of promptly treating and confirming the diagnosis through urgent tissue histopathology in adolescents with unexplained vomiting and diarrhea.
