Biochemical Particularities in a Pacient with Celiac Disease. A case presentation

Abstract

Celiac disease is an autoimmune disease with many systemic manifestations and almost no specific symptoms. Report the case of a young woman with abdominal pain (colic type), bloating and up to 10 loose stools (day and night) associated with progressive weight loss that has been diagnosed with celiac disease in the gastroenterology and hepatology department. After full adherence to the gluten-free diet all biochemical abnormalities disappeared and the patient became normoponderal.
