Benign Pancreatic Hyperenzymemia, Also Known as Gullo's Syndrome.

Benign pancreatic hyperenzymemia, also known as Gullo's syndrome, is a little-known syndrome first described in 1996 in patients studied for an elevation of pancreatic enzymes while otherwise being asymptomatic. We describe the case of a 2-year-old patient who was found to have significant elevation of amylase and lipase levels while he was asymptomatic. Blood tests and imaging tests were performed to determine the etiology, but they gave normal results.

Collagenous gastritis in the pediatric age.

Collagenous gastritis (CG) is an uncommon condition known in the pediatric age. It is characterized by the presence of subepithelial collagen bands (> 10 microm) associated with lymphoplasmacytic infiltration of the stomach's lamina propria. Symptoms manifested by patients with CG may be common with many other disorders.
