ABSTRACT
Background. Celiac disease (CD) is an immune-based systemic
disease characterized by intolerance to gluten. Mainly manifested
by diarrhea, weight loss and malabsorption. Diagnosis depends on
the symptoms, serology and findings of the proximal small bowel
biopsy. The worldwide prevalence has been reported in approximately
1%.
Aim. To describe the prevalence of celiac disease in a
Mexican population.
Material and methods. Transversal study
from January 2009 to June 2011 in Mexico City. In symptomatic
patients were collected serological results for CD and later the search
of histopathological records was conducted, focused on duodenal
biopsy compatible with CD. The prevalence of CD, defined as the
presence of symptoms, serology and histology compatible with CD,
were obtained by descriptive statistics.
Results. There were 230
serological testing for CD, of which 24 had elevated levels of any of
the markers for CD. In this group, only six patients had duodenal
biopsy and five were compatible with CD, so that the prevalence of
CD was 2.17%.
Conclusions. The prevalence of active celiac
disease in the Mexican population studied was higher than the
overall worldwide prevalence reported.
