Atypical celiac disease presenting with clubbing

Celiac disease is an autoimmune disease characterized by inflammation of the small intestinal mucosa due to gluten exposure in individuals with genetic predisposition. Gastrointestinal symptoms such as abdominal pain, diarrhea, loss of appetite and weight loss are seen in majority of the patients. The number of patients presenting with extraintestinal complaints for instance electrolyte disorders, hematologic, muscle, bone, and joint involvement is also considerably high. In this case, we discuss a 12-year-old girl who was recovered from the clinic at 4 months with a gluten-free diagnosis of celiac disease as she presented with complaints of clubbing, developmental delay, and fatigue.Celiac disease is an autoimmune disease characterized by inflammation of the small intestinal mucosa due to gluten exposure in individuals with genetic predisposition.
