Eosinophiluria

Presence of white blood cells in urine

Eosinophiluria is the abnormal presence of eosinophils in the urine. It can be measured by detecting levels of eosinophil cationic protein.

Associated conditions

It can be associated with a wide variety of conditions, including:

Kidney disorders such as acute interstitial nephritis and acute kidney injury from cholesterol embolism
Eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis

Eosinophiluria (5% of urine leukocytes ) is a common finding (~90%) in antibiotic-induced allergic nephritis, however, lymphocytes predominate in allergic interstitial nephritis induced by NSAIDs. Eosinophiluria is a feature of atheroembolic ARF.
