@entity1593 is an intestinal @entity792 , triggered by ingestion of a gluten-containing diet in genetically susceptible individuals. The genetic predisposition is related to human leukocyte antigen (HLA) class II genes, especially HLA-DQ2-positive @entity1 . The prevalence of @entity1593 has been estimated to be ~1% in Europe and the USA, but it is rarer and/or underdiagnosed in Asia. We report a case of @entity1593 in a predisposed @entity1 , with a HLA-DQ2 heterodimer, and @entity2743 that was treated successfully with a gluten-free diet. A 47-year-old @entity1 complained of persistent chronic @entity294 and @entity353 over a 9-month period. Results of all serological tests and stool exams were negative. However, the @entity1 was found to carry the HLA DQ2 heterodimer. Symptoms improved after a gluten-free diet was initiated. The @entity1 has been followed and has suffered no recurrence of symptoms while on the gluten-free diet. An overall diagnosis of @entity1593 was made in a genetically predisposed @entity1 (HLA-DQ2 heterodimer) with @entity2743 .
