Fracaso intestinal y trasplante en la enfermedad por inclusiones microvellositarias

All debuted in the first month of life, with a median age of three days (range, 3-30 days), and had secretory diarrhea dependent on parenteral nutrition, with fasting fecal volume of 150-200 ml/kg/day. Light microscopy of duodenal biopsy samples showed varying degrees of villous atrophy without cryptic hyperplasia, accumulation of PAS positive material in the cytoplasm of enterocytes brush border, and anti-CD10 immunostaining was suggestive of intracytoplasmic inclusions. Diagnostic confirmation was performed with electron microscopy. Two of them had a genetic study, and showed mutations in MYO5B gene. Three died and three are alive; two of them with an intestinal transplantation and the third waiting for a multivisceral transplantation.
