Coeliac disease as the cause of resistant sideropenic anaemia in children with Down's syndrome: Case report

Abstract: CD should be taken into consideration in all cases of sideropenic anaemia resistant to iron oral therapy in children with DS.The diagnosis of CD implicates corresponding pathohistological confirmation, while the treatment of sideropenic anaemia and its complications, beside iron preparations, also requires compliance with a gluten-free diet.

“…The consequences are among the most diverse, being able to include sideroblastic anemia resistant to iron treatment. This subsided when GFD was introduced into the therapeutic regimen ( 202 ). The pathogenic bases of the association are most likely aimed at immune and microbial imbalances, common to the three pathologies ( 203 , 204 ).…”

“…After the recognition of antibodies to gluten in the serum of patients and the recognition of gluten-specific lymphocytes in the mucosa, CD was depicted as an autoimmune disorder that usually presents as enteropathy in genetically susceptible individuals like a chronic "gluten infection" (Zhernakova et al, 2010;Tommasini et al, 2011). It is (Pavlović et al, 2010). CD4(+) T cells have a vital function in CD, identifying and binding complexes bearing gluten peptides that have endured digestion and are deamidated by tissue transglutaminase (TG2) thus supporting disease progression (Lindfors et al, 2010;Huan et al, 2011).…”
