Figure 3 Microscopic changes of IEE in esophageal squamous mucosa. There is basal zone hyperplasia similar to gastroesophageal reflux disease, but the extravasated eosinophils are numerous (>25/high-power field) and more concentrated toward the luminal aspect (H&E stain, original magnification 100×). Clinical Gastroenterology and Hepatology 2003 1, DOI: ( /S (03) )

Figure 4 Microscopic changes of gastroesophageal reflux disease in esophageal squamous mucosa. There are basal zone hyerplasia, tall vascular pegs, and modest number of extravasated lymphocytes and eosinophils (H&E stain, original magnification 100×).
