| مستخلص: | Examination of jejunal aspirates from 22 patients with dermatitis herpetiformis has shown that bacterial colonization of the upper small intestine often occurs. However, a high proportion of the patients had an impaired capacity to secrete gastric acid, and comparison of their jejunal flora with control subjects selected on the basis of gastric acid secretion showed similar bacteriological profiles. Thus colonization of the small intestine in dermatitis herpetiformis is not a primary feature of the condition itself, but is attributable to the frequently associated impairment of gastric acid secretion. Neither impaired acid secretion nor bacterial overgrowth in the small intestine appeared to be responsible for the high concentrations of immunoglobulins found in jejunal aspirates from patients with dermatitis herpetiformis. |
