In recent years, it has become apparent that Tropheryma whipplei not only causes a chronic multisystemic infection which is often preceded by arthropathies for many years, well known as 'classical' Whipple's disease, but also clinically becomes manifest with localized organ affections and acute (transient) infections in children. T.

The Lancet, 2003
Whipple's disease, or intestinal lipodystrophy, is a systemic infectious disorder affecting mostly middle-aged white men. Patients present with weight loss, arthralgia, diarrhoea, and abdominal pain. The disease is commonly diagnosed by small-bowel biopsy; the appearance of the sample is characterised by inclusions in the lamina propria staining with ...

Southern Medical Journal, 2010
Whipple disease (WD) is a rare disease caused by Tropheryma whipplei. The classic profile of the patient is that of a middle-aged man presenting with fever, chronic diarrhea, and arthralgias. Extragastrointestinal manifestations are not rare. A high degree of clinical suspicion for the disease is needed in atypical cases.

Whipple's disease is a chronic systemic infectious disease caused by Tropheryma whippelii that typically involves the small intestine and causes malabsorption. Extraintestinal manifestations such as arthritis and fever are common and often exist prior to the onset of gastrointestinal symptoms.

Patient 1: A 55-year-old-man developed right facial twitching followed 6 months later by somnolence, blurred vision, and imbalance. He noticed that the facial twitching spread to his neck and tongue, and his family noticed that it persisted in sleep.

Gastroenterology Clinics of North America, 1998
Whipple's disease is a chronic, multisystem disease that is caused by Tropheryma whippelii infection. More information is now known about this unusual infectious process, which was once considered uniformly fatal. Immunologic, diagnostic, and therapeutic advancements are reviewed in this article.

Annals of the Rheumatic Diseases, 2002
Whipple's disease is a chronic systemic bacterial infection that predominantly affects middle-aged men. Antimicrobial therapy is curative. The causative agent has been identified as Tropheryma whippelii. A PCR-based diagnostic test is now available and is particularly useful in patients with early-stage or atypical disease.

Whipple's disease (WD) is a chronic debilitating disease caused by the bacillus Tropheryma whippleii. WD classically presents with the main clinical symptoms of polyarthralgias, chronic diarrhea, weight loss, and abdominal pain. Given its systemic involvement, it is common for WD to present with a multitude of other clinical scenarios--sometimes with ...
