title: [Idiopathic exudative gastroenteropathy with apparently spontaneous recovery : a case report (author's transl)].
abstract: The sudden occurrence of oedemas of inferior limbs in a 36 years old woman, has been ascribed to a severe hypoalbuminemia consecutive to an exudative gastroenteropathy of which etiology remained unknown. A successful and lasting evolution followed the correction of hypoalbuminemia by albumin perfusions in exclusion of any other therapy. Such observations though frequent in the childhood are exceptional at maturity.
