👉👉👉Anti-TTG antibody screening is the screening investigation of choice for patients with possible coeliac disease.

🔥🔥🔥Total serum immunoglobulin A (lgA) levels should be checked in parallel as 2% of people have IgA deficiency resulting in a false negative result. In these patients, IgG-TTG should be checked.

✅✅✅The only effective treatment for coeliac disease is a gluten free diet, which must be strictly adhered to. If untreated, it can increase the risk of intestinal lymphoma.

👉👉👉Coeliac disease is associated with other autoimmune conditions such as T1DM, vitiligo, hypothyroidism and dermatitis herpetiformis.
