Recurrent intussusception, coeliac disease and cholelithiasis: A unique combination
Sinha, C.K.; Haider, N.; Zaw, W. & Nour, S.
Abstract
Authors report an 11-month-old female child, who presented with recurrent episodes of colicky abdominal pain and diarrhea. An abdominal ultrasound revealed small bowel intussusception. She was also noted to have a thick walled gall bladder and a solitary gallstone. Further investigations confirmed the diagnosis of coeliac disease. The combination of small bowel intussusception, coeliac disease and cholelithiasis is unique and has not been reported in the literature.
