We report on a case of dermatitis herpetiformis in an eight-year-old boy presenting diarrhoea, short stature and characteristic skin rash. Jejunal biopsy showed a partial villous atrophy. The diagnosis was confirmed by immunofluorescence which showed granular IgA deposits in the papillary dermis. On
Nutritional status of 86 patients with dermatitis herpetiformis (DH) was defined by anthropometric measurements and hematological and biochemical laboratory tests to establish prevalence of malabsorption and malnutrition. Anthropometric measurements in DH patients were comparable to normal control
The case of a 22-year-old patient with symptomatic hypokalemia caused by rhabdomyolysis is presented as a rarely reported complication of gluten-sensitive enteropathy (GSE) and dermatitis herpetiformis Duhring. The patient's myopathy ceased on potassium supplementation and her other complaints
Dear Editor, Dermatitis herpetiformis (DH) is a chronic, polymorphic, pruritic autoimmune blistering skin disease characterized by subepidermal blisters, neutrophilic microabscesses, and granular IgA deposition within the dermal papillae. DH is classified as a cutaneous manifestation of coeliac
Triggered by the ingestion of gluten in genetically predisposed individuals, celiac disease is the most common genetically based food intolerance in the world, with a prevalence among approximately 1% of the general population. This enteropathy may appear at any age and is characterized by a wide
Forty-eight adult patients with celiac disease between 15 and 68 years of age (mean, 41 years) were studied. Sixty-seven percent were female and 33% were male patients. Most of the patients were white (98%). The main clinical features were diarrhea (90%), weight loss (70%), and abdominal pain (56%).
Celiac disease, or gluten-sensitive enteropathy, is an immune-mediated disease of the small bowel that results in malabsorption. It classically presents with gastrointestinal symptoms including chronic diarrhea, weight loss, abdominal bloating and anorexia. It is becoming more frequently identified
OBJECTIVE
The presentation of celiac disease (CD) has changed over the past decades. We aimed to describe the incidence of CD and its complications at diagnosis in a historical cohort in a well-defined population in Denmark.
METHODS
We included all patients aged 15+ years, who lived in Aarhus
OBJECTIVE
Celiac disease shares features of other disorders. It can be diagnosed conclusively only based on duodenal histology analysis, which is not practical for screening purposes. Serologic analysis might be used to identify candidates for biopsy analysis. We aimed to develop a simple diagnostic
We report the clinical, laboratory, and pathological findings in a series of 52 consecutive patients with adult celiac sprue observed over a 20-year period. The frequency of that diagnosis increased from an average of 0.7 case/year during the period 1966-1975 to 5.8 cases/year during the period
We report an unusual case of Whipple's disease diagnosed with help from the patient himself. The patient presented with rash resembling dermatitis herpetiformis, constipation, and intermittent diarrhea. A suspicion of celiac disease led to duodenal biopsy, which showed features of Whipple's disease
BACKGROUND
Celiac disease can present with mild or nongastrointestinal symptoms, and may escape timely recognition. The treatment of celiac disease involves a gluten-free diet, which is complex and challenging.
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate clinical features and symptom recovery on a gluten-free diet in a
OBJECTIVE
To study the clinical presentation of adult celiac disease.
METHODS
A retrospective study of adult patients who were diagnosed with celiac disease based on findings of small intestinal biopsy, response to gluten free diet and exclusion of other causes of malabsorption or vitamin deficiency
Recent studies have been reported for coeliac disease a new prevalence: 1:200 in Europe, 1:184 in Italy. These improvements have been possible for new diagnostic methods and techniques available today: antigliadin, antireticulin and antiendomysium antibodies. These serologic markers have been
Celiac disease, with a prevalence around 1% of the general population, is the most common genetically-induced food intolerance in the world. Triggered by the ingestion of gluten in genetically predisposed individuals, this enteropathy may appear at any age, and is characterized by a wide variety of
