Video Summary

In this video, Joe Vicari discusses a case of a 40-year-old white female with celiac disease who has been experiencing non-bloody watery diarrhea for eight weeks. The patient is strictly adherent to a gluten-free diet and has normal celiac serology. The most likely cause of her diarrhea is determined to be microscopic colitis. Vicari explains that patients with celiac disease have a higher incidence of microscopic colitis, which is more common in women. He describes the diagnosis process, treatment options, and highlights the importance of considering microscopic colitis in celiac disease patients with stable disease and decompensation.
