Abstract
Celiac disease (CD), intolerance to gluten, is characterized by the autoimmune inflammation of the small intestine in genetically susceptible individuals. Herein, we will report a case of a patient diagnosed with CD during investigations performed for recurrent vertigo attacks. Clinicians should be aware that CD may also present with vertigo, and espe- cially in patients with recurrent and prolonged vertigo attacks, CD should also be ruled out.
