[Cerebral calcifications: a clue for a diagnostic process in a nonspecific clinical case].
Coeliac disease is a gluten sensitive enteropathy, autoimmune in origin, which has been traditionally regarded as a gastrointestinal disease. Years later it has been reported an extraintestinal affection. A huge number of neurological syndromes of unknown cause had been initially described in association with coeliac disease, with total or partial response to a gluten free-diet. A specific kind of occipital cerebral calcifications in relation to coeliac disease has been also described, and sometimes it means the existence of a syndrome called "Gobby's Syndrome". We show a patient with a mild unknown coeliac disease, a woman who had occipital cerebral calcifications in a TAC cerebral, which was made because of her intractable migraines and that it lead to the diagnosis. The migraine disappeared after a gluten free-diet, like similar cases reported by literature. The fact of existing neurological symptoms associated to coeliac diseases opens a therapeutic window of opportunity because they would respond to a gluten free-diet.
