Celiac disease is a genetically predisposed, immune-mediated disorder triggered by gluten ingestion. It manifests through a wide range of gastrointestinal and extraintestinal symptoms, making diagnosis challenging. The cornerstone of management is a strict gluten-free diet, which alleviates symptoms and promotes intestinal healing. Early diagnosis and treatment are crucial to prevent long-term complications.
