Fatal Outcome of Imatinib in a Patient with Idiopathic Hypereosinophilic Syndrome

Figure 3

Timeline summarizes the laboratory changes on daily follow-up throughout admission. Rapid decline of eosinophil count from 9,500/mcl to zero levels within less than 24 hours from administration of imatinib is noted. Uric acid level slightly declined and potassium level remained stable except for the last day during which it raised progressively to the level of 7.5 mmol/L.
