abstract={Recently, a male patient, presented to multiple medical specialties that eventually led to development of diarrhea and weight loss followed by eventual review by a gastroenterologist and a specific diagnosis of Whipple¡¯s disease, a systemic disorder first described more than a century ago, but only recently recognized to be caused by <i>Tropheryma whipplei</i>. In this report, an updated review of this apparently very rare clinical disorder was done, including studies permitting a specific diagnosis of this disorder along with exclusion of other intestinal mucosal disorders that may potentially mimic Whipple¡¯s disease.},
