Isolated ocular myopathy and celiac disease in childhood

R. Sandyk, MD and M.J.W. Brennan, MB, BCh, PhD

Department of Neurology, Johannesburg Hospital, Johannesburg, South Africa.

Neurologic deficits complicating celiac disease are well-described in adults. Here we report a 12-year-old girl in whom isolated ocular myopathy was the presenting feature of biopsy-proven celiac disease; the process was apparently reversed by a gluten-free diet and vitamin supplementation.

Address correspondence and reprint requests to Dr. Brennan, Neurological Unit, Boston City Hospital, Boston, MA 02118.

Accepted for publication September 13, 1982.
