Abstract
Cyclosporine was used to treat a child with severe, atypical sprue that was unresponsive to diet, parenteral nutrition, and corticosteroids. Therapy with cyclosporine resulted in a prompt clinical, functional, and histologic recovery. Remission was maintained for 1 yr until the drug was discontinued, when there was a histologic relapse that responded to reinstituting drug therapy. Cyclosporine may provide effective therapy for patients with similar disease.
