title: [New radiological aspects of the intestinal mucosa in celiac sprue: injection of barium into the intestinal glands].
abstract: The radiologic findings are described of mucosal folds thickening in coeliac sprue in patients with short clinical history. Moreover attention is pointed on the flattening of the valves and the thinning of the intestinal walls which appear in dilated segments in cases with evident clinical findings. Finally in patients with long standing clinical manifestations and histologic positive controls, a thin spiculation of intestinal outlines and a dotted mucosal surface are visible, probably due to the filling of the Lieberkühn glands with contrast medium.
