Do scattered white spots in the duodenum mark a specific gastrointestinal pathology?

description OBJECTIVE:  To discover whether scattered white spots (SWS) in the duodenum are related to a specific kind of disease. We also scrutinized other upper endoscopic findings which might be associated with SWS. METHODS:  Among the patients who were admitted for upper gastrointestinal system endoscopy, those having the endoscopic appearance of SWS in duodenum were enrolled in this study. In total 107 patients [70 women, 37 men, mean age: 51.6 ± 16.88 years (range: 17–82 years)] were included. At least three duodenal biopsies were taken from each patient and histopathological examinations were done by experienced pathologists. RESULTS:  The histopathological examination revealed that 39 (36.4%) patients had intestinal lymphangiectasia (IL), 15 (14%) patients had giardiasis (G) and 30 (28.1%) patients had chronic non‐specific duodenitis (CD). Two patients with IL were also found to have G. Twenty patients had both IL and CD. One had both G and CD. G was the least common etiology for SWS in the duodenum. The most common reasons for SWS in the duodenum in this study group were IL and CD, in order of decreasing frequency. There was no significant relationship with the other upper endoscopic findings in all these patients. CONCLUSION:  Histopathological examinations should be provided for each patient with SWS in the duodenum to assess the etiology.
