Abstract
It is of practical importance for histopathological diagnosis that inflammation in autoimmune enteric leiomyositis affects the muscularis propria of the small intestine, whereas mucosa and submucosa do not show severe inflammatory changes. Therefore, correct diagnosis may be missed in peroral and peranal mucosal biopsies, but full-thickness biopsies are required.
