Core Tip Collagenous sprue is a rare and unrecognized cause of diarrhea and weight loss and affects mainly the duodenum and small bowel. The clinical picture often resembles that of coeliac sprue, the main differential diagnosis, albeit refractory to a gluten-free diet. The histological features are fundamentally characterized by the deposition of collagen beneath the basement membrane of the gut mucosa. Treatment should be initiated as soon as the diagnosis is established to prevent the progression of fibrosis. We describe the case of a 34-year-old woman with a collagenous sprue, her diagnostic workup, histopathological examination, and response to treatment. This case can inform future clinicians to aid in timely and correct diagnosis.
