The '''duodenum''' is the first part of the [[small bowel]] and receives food from the [[stomach]].  It is accessible by EGD (esophagogastroduodenoscopy) and frequently biopsied.

**Risk factor for ''gastrointestinal T cell lymphoma'' - known as: ''enteropathy-associated T cell lymphoma'' (EATL).
====Clinical====
Treatment:
*Gluten free diet.
**''Mnemonic'': BROW = barley, rye, oats, wheat.
Serologic testing:
*Anti-transglutaminase antibody.
**Alternative test: anti-endomysial antibody.
*IgA -- assoc. with celiac sprue.
===Microscopic===
Features:<ref name=Ref_PBoD843>{{Ref PBoD|843}}</ref>
*Intraepithelial lymphocytes (IELs) - '''key feature'''.
**Should be more pronounced at tips of villi.<ref name=pmid15280404>{{cite journal |author=Biagi F, Luinetti O, Campanella J, ''et al.'' |title=Intraepithelial lymphocytes in the villous tip: do they indicate potential coeliac disease? |journal=J.

*Loss of villi - '''important feature'''.
**Normal duodenal biopsy should have 3 good villi.
*Plasma cells - abundant (weak feature).
*Macrophages.
*Mitosis increased (in the crypts).
*+/-Collagen band (pink material in mucosa) - "Collagenous sprue"; must encompass ~25% of mucosa.
Image:
*[http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Coeliac_path.jpg Celiac sprue (WC)].
Notes:
*If you see acute inflammatory cells, i.e. neutrophils, consider Giardiasis and other infectious etiologies.
*Biopsy should consist of 2-3 sites.  In children it is important to sample the duodenal cap, as it is the only affected site in ~10% of cases.
*Flat lesions without IELs are unlikely to be celiac sprue.
*Mucosa erosions are rare in celiac sprue; should prompt consideration of an alternate diagnosis (infection, medications, Crohn's disease).
===Grading===
Rarely done - see ''[[celiac sprue]]'' article.

*A somewhat controversial type of [[chronic duodenitis]].
*Considered to be a consequence of [[peptic ulcer disease]] ([[Helicobacter gastritis]]).
*One of the key components of the diagnosis is foveolar metaplasia and it is disputed that this is really due to Helicobacter.

=====Micro=====
The sections show small bowel mucosa and a small amount of submucosa. Brunner's glands are abundant and found focally in the lamina propria. Gastric foveolar-type epithelium is identified. Intraepithelial neutrophils are not identified.
 
The epithelium matures appropriately. There is no increase in intraepithelial lymphocytes.
