Uncomplicated Celiac Disease

Refractory Celiac Disease

Abstract

Uncomplicated celiac disease is a chronic, autoimmune systemic disorder that is triggered by the ingestion of gluten, a protein found in foods such as wheat, rye, and barley. It appears in genetically susceptible individuals who, in response to unclear environmental triggers, develop an immune response triggered by gluten ingestion. The clinical presentation is largely known to be malabsorption and its subsequent complications, in addition to gastrointestinal symptoms. Diagnosis requires the demonstration of small intestinal villous atrophy in the presence of certain serologic antibodies known to be sensitive and specific for celiac disease. The only known treatment of celiac disease is lifelong adherence to a strict gluten-free diet. Management requires a holistic and multidisciplinary approach with close-follow up.
