[Intestinal nodular lymphatic hyperplasia (INLH) in hypo-gammaglobulinemia (author's transl)]. 1981

D Maas, and W Wenz

Gastrointestinal symptoms frequently occur in patients with hypogammaglobulinemia of the late-onset idiopathic type, but intestinal nodular lymphatic hyperplasia (INLH) is rarely found. The characteristic radiological findings of the small bowel are reported in two patients with this well defined syndrome. The aspects of the radiological differential diagnosis of multiple small nodular filling defects of the intestine are discussed.
