Hypereosinophilia Associated With Antisynthetase Syndrome With Anti‐Ro52/PL12 Co‐Positivity: An Unusual Presentation

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Hypereosinophilia is uncommon in ASS and this presentation makes diagnosis more challenging. Anti‐PL12's role in the severity of ILD is controversial but its association with anti‐Ro52 seems to give a more serious disease phenotype. African ethnicity could be a negative prognostic factor, associated with lung disease severity.
