We report an unusual case of Whipple's disease diagnosed with help from the patient himself. The patient presented with rash resembling dermatitis herpetiformis, constipation, and intermittent diarrhea. A suspicion of celiac disease led to duodenal biopsy, which showed features of Whipple's disease on histology and electron microscopy.
我们报告一例在患者自身帮助下确诊的罕见惠普尔病病例。该患者表现出类似疱疹样皮炎的皮疹、便秘和间歇性腹泻。对乳糜泻的怀疑导致了十二指肠活检,组织学和电子显微镜检查显示为惠普尔病的特征。
