Abstract
Autoimmune gastrointestinal (GI) disorders comprise a heterogeneous group of diseases with non-specific clinical manifestations. These are divided into primary and secondary. A high index of clinical suspicion complemented with endoscopic and radiological imaging may allow early diagnosis. Due to the relatively low incidence of autoimmune disorder, the imaging literature is sparse. In this review, we outline the pathogenesis, classification, and imaging appearances of autoimmune GI disorders.
