5. Selective Vitamin B12 Malabsorption in Adult Coeliac Disease: Report on Three Cases with Associated Autoimmune Diseases

Author

Stene-Larsen, G., Mosvold, J., and Ly, B.

Abstract

Three cases of adult coeliac disease with severe vitamin B12 deficiency not accompanied by folate or iron depletion are presented. Two of the patients had the extremely rare combination of coeliac disease and lack of intrinsic factor and autoimmune thrombocytopenic purpura. A close association between coeliac disease and autoimmunity is indicated by the development of autoimmune thyroiditis in the third patient. Vitamin B12 malabsorption caused by coeliac disease is emphasized as a pathogenetic mechanism of megaloblastic anaemia.

Abstract

A follow-up study of erosive prepyloric changes (EPC) was undertaken in 60 patients who originally presented with non-ulcer dyspepsia and EPC grade 2 or 3. After 45 (range, 24–60) months EPC grade 2 or 3 was still present in 80% of the patients, and 82% had unchanged dyspeptic symptoms. Most of the patients (77%) experienced a ‘stressful’ life situation. None of the patients had developed peptic ulceration during the follow-up period, and there were no indications of active or healed ulcerations or cancer at the follow-up study. The results indicate that EPC are chronic changes in the gastric mucosa closely associated with long-lasting dyspeptic symptoms.
