Idiopathic hypereosinophilic syndrome is a rare disease which is diagnosed after excluding other conditions. The syndrome is characterized by multiple organ involvement including the heart, nervous system, lungs, and gastrointestinal tract. The disease is suspected if there is peripheral blood eosinophilia and no clear etiology. The main treatment is corticosteroids. Patients who do not respond to corticosteroids can be treated with imatinib, immunomodulatory agents, myelosuppressive therapy, or mepolizumab. Alemtuzumab can be considered in severe cases that are unresponsive to other therapies. In this paper, we describe a case of idiopathic hypereosinophilic syndrome with mainly cardiac system involvement and left ventricular thrombus formation which was complicated by cerebral thromboemboli while on warfarin with international normalized ratio in the therapeutic range. Our patient responded well to steroids appreciated by improvement in clinical symptoms and decrease in eosinophil count.
