New mutations of EpCAM gene for tufting enteropathy in Saudi Arabia.

Saudi journal of gastroenterology : official journal of the Saudi Gastroenterology Association - 1 Jan 2000

AlMahamed Shaden, Hammo Abdelhai

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND/AIM: Tufting enteropathy (TE) is a rare cause of congenital intractable diarrhea in children. It often results in an irreversible intestinal failure and total parenteral nutrition (TPN) dependency; eventually, intestinal transplantation may be necessary. Data on TE from the Middle East are scarce; therefore, our aim of conducting this study was to clarify the clinical, histopathologic, and molecular...
