    Abstract:
    UNLABELLED: The purpose of of this study is to identify IELs through immunocytochemistry stains for counting infiltration duodenal mucosa with T lymphocytes in children with celiac disease. MATERIAL AND METHOD: It was selected up simptomatology (abdominal pain, anorexia, failure thrive, chronic diarheea), features immunology(positifs tissue transglutaminase antibodies) and considering the histopathologic results (IELs > 30/100 enterocytes, crypt hyperplasia and villous atrophy) we made two groups: first group (13 children with celiac disease of 53 children with celiac disease) and second group (13 children with chronic duodenitis nonspecific). For evidence of intraepithelial lymphocytes T using immunocytochemistry tehnicque (immunohistochemical staining) Envision with antibody anti CD 3 from Dako firme. Corresponding Marsh clasification considering patological IELs > 30/100 enterocytes. Statitics method was used The Student' t test. RESULTS: Analyse IELs in two groups our show difference statistics to demonstrate with the Student' t test (t = -12.237; p = 0.003). CONCLUSION: An increase IELs is helpful in recognising early and bordeline, but the finding is not specific. The histopathologic exam remains the gold standard for celiac disease.
