Hello,

this www ebsite provides information about Whipple´s Disease in the internet.

To find what you are looking for, please click the respective buttom in the menue.

All content is based on the medical literature and our personal experience which started with a first patient in 1983. Later in 1993 our Arbeitsgruppe Tropheryma whippelii was established at the University of Heidelberg (Germany) which was operative until May 2004. Since then, our interest continues - now on a more international level. Until present, we have studied more than 190 patients with a documented Whipple´s disease .
