In the half century since Whipple first described the disease which continues to bear his name, only 50 or 60 cases have been reported, and the validity of several of these is in question. In recent years there has been renewed interest in Whipple's disease (intestinal lipodystrophy) because of its possible response to steroid therapy.

Current Neurology and Neuroscience Reports, 2003
Whipple disease is a rare disease caused by infection with the bacterium Tropheryma whippelii. Humans are the only known host for the infection. The signs of systemic infection include gastrointestinal problems, weight loss, and arthritis. Signs of central nervous system infection include cognitive changes, supranuclear gaze palsy, altered level of ...

Current Opinion in Gastroenterology, 2008
The availability of and advantages in molecular technology and immunology have led to an improved understanding of the etiology and pathogenesis of Whipple disease. As this rare infection represents a model disease reflecting the input of novel findings into clinical medicine and therapy, this review intends to highlight newer findings and put them in ...

Journal of the Neurological Sciences, 2017
Whipple's disease is a rare, chronic, systemic infectious disorder with prominent intestinal manifestations. It presents with weight loss, arthralgia, diarrhea, and abdominal pain. There are different entities of infection or carriage, respectively, classical Whipple's disease, localized WD, and Isolated Neurological WD.

Postgraduate Medicine, 1968
A 50 year old man lost 50 lb, passed bulky stools, and complained of joint pain. He was pigmented and had large nodes. PAS dye stained granules in mesenteric and axillary nodes and macrophages in the jejunal mucosa. Antibiotic treatment resulted in remission of symptoms.

Subcutaneous Whipple's disease
Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology, 1987Cutaneous findings in Whipple's disease are rare and often exhibit nonspecific lesions such as hyperpigmentation, subcutaneous nodules, and erythema nodosum. A 37-year-old black man with previously documented Whipple's disease developed soft, subcutaneous nodules on the chin, neck and extremities.

Whipple's disease is characterized morphologically by macrophages in the small intestine which store PAS-postive material, as well as coarsening and atrophy of the intestinal villi, with pseudocystic cavitations. Without treatment it ends fatally due to irreversible diarrhoea and cachexia. Until 1963, only 90 cases had been diagnosed, most of them at

Whipple's disease is characterized by malabsorption, weight loss, diarrhoea and abdominal pain, often preceded by a long period of migrating arthralgias. Instead of the intestine the heart, brain, eyes, lungs or blood vessels may be affected. Whipple's disease is caused by Tropheryma whippelii, a bacillus found inside phagocytes.
