entérite
Sign in to saveEnteritis is inflammation of the small intestine. It is most commonly caused by food or drink contaminated with pathogenic microbes, such as Serratia, but may have other causes such as NSAIDs, radiation therapy as well as autoimmune conditions like coeliac disease. Symptoms may include abdominal pain, cramping, diarrhoea, dehydration, and fever. Related diseases of the gastrointestinal (GI) system (including gastritis, gastroenteritis, colitis, and enterocolitis) may involve inflammation of the stomach and large intestine.

L'entérite est l'inflammation de l'intestin grêle. Chez l'humain elle prend la forme d'une gastro-entérite lorsqu'elle est liée à une gastrite. Chez les anatidés elle prend le nom de peste du canard.
