摘要

Purpose of Review

Non-celiac enteropathies (NCE) can be due to a variety of causes. The workup for NCE includes history, physical, laboratory and histology review and can be difficult. Enteropathies can result in serious illness due to consequences of malabsorption including severe weight loss, nutritional deficiencies, and debilitating diarrhea. Recognition and support of these consequences while investigating underlying etiology is essential.

Recent Findings

Recent studies in NCEs have focused on improving diagnostic accuracy and predicting long-term outcomes in patients with NCEs. Further, literature has emphasized the importance of histological analysis, with a focus on differentiating between various enteropathies that cause villous atrophy, highlighting the complexity and need for personalized approaches in managing these conditions.

Summary

Identification of etiologies of NCEs requires review of patients’ detailed history, medications, and lab results. Common etiologies include immunodeficiencies, infectious, iatrogenic, and malignant causes. Using a systematic approach can lead to proper diagnosis and tailor treatment choices, benefiting patient outcomes. Supportive nutrition care should be initiated early when applicable to minimize morbidity.
