Ménétrier's disease diagnosed by enteroclysis CT: a case report and review of the literature

R Fiori et al. Abdom Imaging. 2011 Dec.

Abstract

This study reports a case of Ménétrier's disease (MD) in an adult who presented with epigastric pain and peripheric edema. We focused in particular on the imaging and diagnostic aspects of the presenting case as well as clinical, histologic, and therapeutic aspects. Computed tomography (CT) enteroclysis is a new imaging technique which combines enteroclysis and spiral multislice CT. To the best of our knowledge this is the first report on a MD in an adult patient diagnosed by CT Enteroclysis.
