Abstract

immunoproliferative small intestinal disease is considered as a rare condition and has endemicity inMediterranean countries and often associated with campylobacter jejuni infection. This conditionvaries in severity from benign to frankly malignant. Prolonged remission can be obtained with longterm antibiotic therapy but chemotherapy is required for those who have aggressive disease. Bangladeshidata on IPSID is sparse.
