Eosinophilic gastroenteritis (EGE) is a rare condition characterized by eosinophilic infiltration into the gastrointestinal tract. Symptoms are often non-specific and gastrointestinal in nature, such as nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, diarrhea, weight loss, and malabsorption. Diagnosis is primarily based on clinical findings, laboratory tests, imaging, and histopathological examination through endoscopic biopsy. Treatment involves corticosteroids, proton pump inhibitors (PPIs), and dietary modifications. This article presents the case of a 15-year-old male diagnosed with eosinophilic gastroenteritis with a history of cow’s milk allergy. The patient was treated with systematic corticosteroids (1mg/kg/24h), PPIs (esomeprazole 40mg/day) and elimination dietary therapy (peptide-based formula), resulting in positive clinical outcome. Through this case, we emphasize the importance of early diagnosis and appropriate management in handling this rare disorder.

Nigeria and developing countries are suffering from infectious diseases due to a mixture of determinants. Parable, rotavirus is a major concern that causes a lot of deaths and hospitalization among children under five of age. Therefore, it is imperative to have more understanding of the rotavirus. A literature review to form concepts were made under the following headings: Historical background of the Rotaviruses, General Characteristics of Rotaviruses, Classification of Rotaviruses, Structure of Rotavirus particle, Rotavirus protein, Non- structural proteins, Structure of Rotavirus genome, Genetic reassortment of Rotaviruses, Mechanisms of Rotavirus genetic diversity, Rotavirus infection, Rotavirus replication, Transmission of Rotaviruses, Incubation period of Rotaviruses, Pathogenesis of Rotavirus infection, Signs and symptoms of Rotavirus infection, Immunity to Rotaviruses, Laboratory diagnosis of Rotaviruses, Epidemiology of Rotaviruses, Treatment of rotavirus infection, Antiviral therapy, Other Therapies, Management of Rotavirus infection, Prevention of Rotavirus infections, General Preventive Measures, Hospital Infection Control Measures. This information would invariably help in gaining understanding the basics of Rotavirus that causes diarrhea in children.
