  • Title: [Agammaglobulinemia and eosinophilic gastroenteritis].
    Author: Stefenelli N, Leibl W, Brandstetter G, Eibl M, Fritsch G.
    Journal: Wien Klin Wochenschr; 1980 Dec 05; 92(23):840-4. PubMed ID: 6985529.
    Abstract:
    The case is reported of a 34-year-old patient with diffuse eosinophilic gastroenteritis in connection with agammaglobulinaemia and B-cell defect. The syndrome was manifested by malabsorption, and gastrointestinal protein loss, complicated by temporary pyloric obstruction and duodenal ulceration. As in the case of sprue-like changes in the small intestinal mucosa, and nodular lymphoid hyperplasia, this diffuse eosinophilic gastroenteritis may be a reaction of the stomach and small intestine to immunological abnormalities.
