Liver in Celiac Disease. Invited Review. Journal of Pediatric Gastroenterology and Nutrition. 37(2): 117-119. August 2003.

Celiac disease (CD) presents with a spectrum of clinical disorders, mainly of autoimmune mechanism. This article reviews the involvement of the liver in patients with celiac disease. A wide variety of liver injuries, particularly of the inflammatory type, have been reported in patients with CD. More rarely, other liver lesions, such as hepatic steatosis, cirrhosis (scarring), and hepatocellular carcinoma (liver cancer) are found in the liver biopsies of children and adults with CD at the time of diagnosis. Among the inflammatory lesions, both mild liver injuries with limited fibrosis as well as severe and progressive liver diseases have been described. The authors conclude that these considerations recommend a rigorous search for evidence of liver disease among patients with newly diagnosed CD by monitoring aminotransferases activity. 37 references.

Living A Full Life. Omaha, NE: Celiac Sprue Association. 2003. 8 p.

This brochure helps readers recently diagnosed with celiac disease, an autoimmune disorder in which the body reacts to the ingestion of gluten, a protein found in wheat, barley, rye, oats, or any of their derivatives. In people with celiac disease, gluten damages the small intestine and prevents the proper absorption of nutrients into the body. Treatment is with a gluten-free diet. Topics covered include the terminology, the causes of celiac disease, the symptoms of the disease, diagnostic strategies used to confirm the presence of celiac disease, and treatment by using a gluten-free diet. The contact information for the Celiac Sprue Association is also provided (www.csaceliacs.org).
