RESUMEN
Churg-Strauss syndrome is a rare systemic disorder characterized by asthma, eosionphilia and necrotizing vasculitis affecting small-to-medium-sized vessels. Although it is frequently associated with gastrointestinal mucosal lesions, recurrent bowel perforation is rare and potentially life threatening. We report a case of a 66-year-old man with Churg-Strauss syndrome, who presented with recurrent small bowel perforation. He was admitted with abdominal pain developed previous night, who had a previous small bowel perforation history treated with laparoscopic closure 5 months ago. Laboratory data showed remarkable eosinophilia. Physical examination indicated positive signs of peritoneal irritation in the entire abdomen, and abdominal computed tomography scanning showed edematous small bowel with intra-abdominal free air, suggesting intestinal perforation. He underwent laparoscopic small bowel closure and was treated with steroid.
