title: [Celiac disease with subepithelial deposition of collagen].
abstract: In 1970 a case of malabsorption with flat small intestinal mucosa with subepithelial collagen deposition was described. There was no response to a gluten-free diet, and the condition was termed collagenous sprue. We report a case of coeliac disease with subepithelial deposition of collagen in duodenal biopsy, which responded to a gluten-free diet.
