title: Simultaneous macroamylasemia and macrolipasemia.
abstract: The first case of the simultaneous presence of macroamylasemia and macrolipasemia in a patient with gluten enteropathy (celiac disease) is described. Both macroenzymes were formed by association of polyclonal IgA with amylase and lipase. Both macroenzymes had molecular masses > 300 kDa.
