title: [Biopsy examinations of small intestinal mucosa in malabsorption syndrome of childhood].
abstract: The results of bioptic mucosal specimens examination are discussed. Samples of the small intestine were collected from 211 children with malabsorption syndrome of various etiology such as cow milk protein intolerance, gluten intolerance, spontaneous diarrhoea and other. The results obtained with microscopic examination scored with Shmerling scale were compared with those of light microscopic examination of histological preparations. The difficulties connected with proper sampling and handling of the bioptic specimen are discussed. Technical errors very often are the cause of the diagnostic failure.
