초록

Cardiac involvement in hypereosinophilia is rare; when present, it manifests as ventricular thickening, usually with fibrous tissueand mural thrombosis. We present a case of a 57-year-old man with an abnormal right ventricular apex with eosinophilia, whichwas caused by Toxocara canis infection.
