IN 1978 we described a group of infants who presented with an apparently familial enteropathy characterized by protracted diarrhea from birth and hypoplastic villous atrophy.1Electron microscopical examination of surface enterocytes in a jejunal biopsy specimen from one of these patients revealed peculiar intracytoplasmic inclusions composed of neatly arranged brush-border microvilli. Similar intracytoplasmic inclusions have since been reported in five other infants, all of whom had protracted diarrhea starting at or soon after birth.234The constellation of early protracted diarrhea with enterocyte microvillus inclusions has been called congenital microvillus atrophy,2,3congenital familial protracted diarrhea with enterocyte brush-border abnormalities, or Davidson's . . .
