General Information of Disease (ID: DISBV9KE)

Disease Name Congenital enteropathy due to enteropeptidase deficiency
Synonyms enterokinase deficiency; enteropeptidase deficiency; congenital enterokinase deficiency
Definition
A rare, genetic, gastroenterological disease characterized by early-onset failure to thrive, edema, hypoproteinemia, diarrhea and fat malabsorption (or steatorrhea) in the presence of very low or absent trypsin activity in duodenal fluid. Celiac disease, or other pancreatic or mucosal disorders, may be associated.
