    Author: Welsh A, Rogers P, Clift F.
    Journal: CJEM; 2016 Jul; 18(4):309-12. PubMed ID: 25985980.
    Abstract:
    Wernicke's encephalopathy (WE) is a serious neurologic condition resulting from thiamine deficiency. The majority of cases involve alcoholism; however, nonalcohol-associated WE does occur and is under-recognized. We discuss a case of a 22-year-old man with a history of Crohn's disease who presented to our emergency department with multiple neurologic complaints related to WE.
