Popis:	Menetrier's disease is one of the rarer causes of protein-losing enteropathies seen in childhood. At onset of symptoms, the present case and 15 others reported so far were younger than 10 yr of age. Edema was usually more conspicuous than gastrointestinal symptoms. In contrast to the usual chronicity of the disease in adults, the illness is self-limited, transient, and benign.
