Protein-losing enteropathy and gastropathy
Current Treatment Options in Gastroenterology, 2001The diagnosis of protein-losing enteropathy (PLE) should be considered in all patients with hypoalbuminemia and edema without other known causes, and established by plasma alpha(1)-antitrypsin (alpha(1)-AT) clearance or nuclear studies. The therapy for PLE should focus principally on the treatment of the underlying disease after it has been identified.
