Abstract

The most typical manifestations of celiac disease are gastrointestinal symptoms. At the same time, in some patients, extraintestinal manifestations of the disease come at the first line. The aim of the presented work is to describe a case of atypical celiac disease in a female patient born in 1978 with a late onset (at age 37), damages of musculoskeletal system and nervous system. Presented data allow us to conclude that the diagnosis and treatment of celiac disease can cause difficulties in case of the late onset of the disease and predominance of extraintestinal symptoms (damage of nervous and/or musculoskeletal systems). Currently, the only treatment for intestinal and extraintestinal symptoms of celiac disease is a gluten-free diet, which can lead to remission even in the case of the most severe disease course.
