In the present article, the authors provide detailed material on the 13-year observation of a patient with such a rare disease as Whipple’s disease. Pathophysiological aspects, in particular changes in immunity within the framework of this nosology, clinical picture are also described in detail, and the emphasis is placed on the interrelation of certain symptoms, their intensification and regression.
