摘要
Tc-labeled human serum albumin scintigram showing abnormal radioactivity in the stomach. Endoscopic gastric biopsies revealed nonspecific inflammation, but marked intramural edema. Based on a slight elevation of antinuclear antibody level, autoimmune disease was suspected to be involved in this patient. Administration of prednisolone, as a diagnostic therapy, alleviated the hypoproteinemia, hypoalbuminemia, and hypercholesteremia. These findings suggest that an autoimmune mechanism could have been involved in this case of protein-losing gastropathy.
