Abstrakt
The case of a 26-year-old female patient with abdominal pain, nausea, hypoproteinemia, enteric loss of plasma proteins, lymphedema, severe steatorrhea and malabsorption, is presented. Enteroclysis and sonography were performed. Based on the case history and the characteristics of focal lesion and intestinal folds provided by the two radiologic examinations, a specific diagnosis of intestinal lymphangiectasia, confirmed at biopsy, could be established. Intestinal lymphagiectasia is a very uncommon condition characterized by dilated submucosal lymphatic channels.
