Abstract

Microvillous inclusion disease is a rare disorder of infancy associated with protracted diarrhea. This malady reveals distinct ultrastructural changes. The surface enterocytes of the duodenum show vesicles lined with microvilli and the surface microvilli are poorly formed. The authors present one case of microvillous inclusion disease with a review of the literature.
