[Article in Russian]
L I Aruin. Vestn Ross Akad Med Nauk. 1994.

Abstract

The author describes the morphological substrate and pathogenesis of the most common enteropathies (gluten enteropathy, collagen sprue, Whipple's disease, common variable immunodeficiency), discusses the potentials and limits of morphological methods for differential diagnosis of enteropathies, emphasizes the high informative value of duodenal biopsies that are as good as jejuno-biopsies. He considers it incompetent to use the term "chronic enteritis" which is widely spread in our country. The term stands for nosological diagnosis, making the treatment of patients worse.
