Abstract
We report an unusual case of Whipple's disease diagnosed with help from the patient himself. The patient presented with rash resembling dermatitis herpetiformis, constipation, and intermittent diarrhea. A suspicion of celiac disease led to duodenal biopsy, which showed features of Whipple's disease on histology and electron microscopy.
