| description | Celiac disease presents with a wide spectrum of symptoms and signs. Some patients
may be asymptomatic though some may present with acute celiac crisis, which is
a rare and serious complication of celiac disease. Here we present a patient who
presented with a physically ill appearance, hypokalemia, hypoalbuminemia and
was treated successfully with gluten-free diet, steroids and electrolyte replacement
therapy. Acute celiac crisis, which is a rare complication of celiac disease with
increased mortality, should be considered in differential diagnosis of patients with
chronic diarrhea, hypernatremia, hypokalemia, hypoalbuminemia and metabolic
acidosis and appropriate treatment should be started as soon as possible. |
