    Journal: Am J Gastroenterol; 1988 Dec; 83(12):1418-9. PubMed ID: 3195550.
    Abstract:
    Protein-losing gastroenteropathy is a well-recognized entity in systemic sclerosis, for which several mechanisms have been postulated. Acquired intestinal lymphangiectasia as a cause of increased intestinal protein loss has not previously been described in the literature. We report the first case of acquired intestinal lymphangiectasia in systemic sclerosis.
