MACHADO, A. Sousa et al. Doença celíaca no adulto: a propósito de um caso clínico. J Port Gastrenterol. [online]. 2006, vol.13, n.3, pp.139-143. ISSN 0872-8178.
The authors present the case of a 20 year old male Caucasian with no relevant personal or family history of disease, who presented with a history of diarrhoea, joint pain and weight loss. Laboratory findings pointed to malabsorption. Celiac disease was diagnosed based on endoscopic, histological and serological findings. He gradually recovered both clinically and in terms of laboratory values, after being started on a gluten-free diet.
