ABSTRACT
A patient with Whipple's disease presented with low intestinal obstruction and hemorrhage due to mesenteric retraction which was attributed to intra-abdominal enlarged lymph nodes. Ultrastructural findings included abundant intracellular bacilli. This complication of Whipple's disease has not been previously described and should be listed in the differential diagnosis of colonic obstruction.
