Hodgkin's lymphoma presenting as a protein-losing enteropathy: a case report.

A J Silbert, J D Ireland, P J Uys, M D Bowie.   

Abstract

A 10-year-old boy presented with oedema. Panhypoproteinaemia due to excessive enteric protein loss was demonstrated, and further investigation revealed the cause to be lymphocyte-depleted Hodgkin's lymphoma. Appropriate chemotherapy resulted in a dramatic improvement in the serum protein level and resolution of the proptosis and lymphadenopathy.
