Metabolic bone disease in a female patient with gluten enteropathy

A 41-year old female patient with metabolic bone disease is presented. The disease was caused by malabsorption which developed as a result of gluten induced enteropathy. The diagnosis was confirmed by histological finding of the small intestine mucosa and bones. Following gluten-free diet, calcitriol and calcium tablets, the patient started to move independently and the bone mineralisation improved.
