PERCC1‐associated enteropathy: Diagnostic challenges and enteral autonomy achieved with teduglutide
Abstract Congenital diarrheas and enteropathies (CODE) are rare inherited disorders characterized by early‐onset intractable diarrhea. Though progress has been made in elucidating the genetic basis of CODE, much remains to be discovered. Another challenge is the lack of curative therapies—treatment is primarily supportive including enteral and ...
