đHow to take duodenal biopsies for coeliac disease:
â
4x D2 biopsies
â
2x D1 biopsies
â
D1 biopsy from 9 and 12 oâclock
â
Single bites (less distortion)
â
Separate pots - D1 has more Brunnerâs glands and shorter villi
â
Should be on gluten
From this prospective cohort study of 77 patients.
âThere is no obvious explanation as to why villous atrophy is more severe in the 9- and 12-o'clock positions of the duodenal bulb; however, a plausible argument could be that these sites are the most exposed areas subjected to gluten because food traverses the duodenal bulb into the second part of the duodenumâ
