Abstract:
Whipple's disease is rarely diagnosed in Latin America. We describe 2 patients with Tropheryma whipplei infection diagnosed in Mexico during 2019-2021. Diagnoses were confirmed by histopathology, electron microscopy, immunohistochemistry, and DNA amplification and sequencing analysis of the 16S rRNA gene. Clinicians should be aware of T. whipplei infection and associated syndromes.
