title: NON-CELIAC SPRUE: A CASE OF OLMESARTAN-INDUCED ENTEROPATHY.
abstract: Diarrhea, weight loss and villous atrophy is usually associated with the autoimmune disease celiac sprue, which is generally diagnosed by testing for tissue transglutaminase (tTG) or endomysial antibodies. In patients with negative serologies, however, other causes of villous atrophy must be investigated, including infection, irritable bowel disease, intestinal neoplasms and drug-induced enteropathy.
