lüll An approach to duodenal biopsies Serra S; Jani PAJ Clin Pathol 2006[Nov]; 59 (11): 1133-50The introduction of endoscopy of the upper digestive tract as a routine diagnostic procedure has increased the number of duodenal biopsy specimens. Consequently, the pathologist is often asked to evaluate them. In this review, a practical approach to the evaluation of a duodenal biopsy specimen is discussed. An overview of the handling of specimens is given and the normal histology and commonly encountered diseases are discussed. Finally, a description of commonly seen infections is provided, together with an algorithmic approach for diagnosis.|*Biopsy/methods[MESH]|Algorithms[MESH]|Celiac Disease/diagnosis[MESH]|Diagnosis, Differential[MESH]|Duodenal Diseases/*pathology[MESH]|Duodenitis/pathology[MESH]|Duodenum/*pathology[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Infections/diagnosis[MESH]|Intestinal Mucosa/pathology[MESH] |
