چکیده
Collagenous gastritis is a rarely diagnosed disorder in pediatrics. The pediatric onset type typically presents with abdominal pain and anemia and the adult onset type with diarrhea. We present 2 new cases of collagenous gastritis. The first case presented with abdominal pain but no anemia. The second case presented with diarrhea as seen in the adult onset form and found to have celiac disease. This is the second report in a pediatric patient with collagenous gastritis and proven celiac disease.
