RESUMEN
En los últimos años, ha cobrado mayor interés la existencia de un cuadro clínico muy similar al de la enfermedad celíaca, que no se ajusta a los cánones tradicionales de diagnóstico. Se trata de pacientes con una alta sospecha diagnóstica de enfermedad celíaca, que presentan serología y biopsia de intestino delgado normal. La literatura relata, desde la década del 80, la existencia de un síndrome que relaciona el gluten de la dieta con un efecto tóxico generador de síntomas gastrointestinales en presencia de una mucosa normal. A esta entidad se la denominó síndrome de Cooper-Cook. En los últimos años, ha habido numerosas publicaciones que hacen referencia a esta entidad, pero ahora bajo la denominación de sensibilidad al gluten. En el siguiente artículo, se presentan tres casos clínicos que hacen referencia a esta enfermedad.
ABSTRACT
In the last few years, the existence of a clinical profile similar to celiac disease has become important; this disease does not adapt to the traditional diagnosis canons. It is related to a number of patients who are diagnosed as having the celiac disease but present normal serology and small bowel's biopsy. Since the 80's, medical literature reports the existence of a syndrome that connects gluten diet with a toxic effect that produces gastrointestinal symptoms even though the mucosa remains normal. This disease is called the Cooper-Cook syndrome. Over the last few years, there have been lots of publications about this disease under the name "gluten sensitivity". In the following article, three clinical cases that refer to this condition are presented.
