Generalized edema with hypoproteinemia as initial presentation of celiac disease in a 3- year-old boy: case report
Edema is defi ned as abnormal accumulation of fl uid in the interstitium. Differential diagnosis of generalized edema is very broad. Most often, renal and cardiac causes lead to generalized edema. The potential gastrointestinal causes of edema are liver failure and protein losing enteropathy including celiac disease and protein malnutrition. Generalized edema is rarely an initial manifestat ion of celiac disease. Hereby, we present a case of a 3-year-old boy with celiac disease, initially presented with generalized edema and hypoproteinemia.
