The syndrome of coeliac disease, cerebral calcifications and epilepsy, is a rare complication of the coeliac disease. The typical curse includes three stages leading to a severe encephalopathy. The pathogenetic process is until the unknown; main clues involve a chronic folic acid deficiency or HLA-related autoimmune disorder. Treatment requires early gluten-free diet and antiepileptic drugs. We report on the first patient in Uruguay with manifestations of syndrome coeliac disease, cerebral calcifications and epilepsy.
