Transient neutral fat steatorrhea, elevated sweat chloride concentration, and hypoparathyroidism in a child with celiac disease.
A patient with celiac disease and the unusual features of transiently elevated sweat chlorides, reversible exocrine pancreatic insufficiency, symptomatic hypocalcemia/hypomagnesemia, and transient secondary hypoparathyroidism is presented along with a brief discussion of the physiologic mechanisms thought to underlie their development.
