Celiac Disease

Diagnosis and Management

Celiac In Elderly

Recent findings indicate that celiac disease, once believed to predominantly affect children, can impact individuals of all age groups. Epidemiological investigations suggest that a significant number of cases are identified in individuals aged 50 and above. Notably, a study revealed that the median age for diagnosis was slightly below 50, with a third of new cases diagnosed in individuals over 65.(Rashtak S, 2019)
