bjective: It is thought that the number of pat ients di- agnosed with celiac disease (CD) has increased with growing awareness and diagnostic possibilities in recent years. In our study, it was aimed to evaluate the change in the incidence of CD over the years and the fac- tors contributing to the diagnosis. Material and Methods: In our study, pediatric patients diagnosed with CD between 2010-2015 and 2016- 2021 were defined as Group 1 and Group 2, respectively. Patients were evaluated in terms of demographic characteristics, symptoms, comor- bidities, centers from wh ich they are referred and the data were com- pared between the groups. Results: Of 257 patients, 96 (37.4%) were included into Group 1. The frequency of typ ical/atypical symptoms were comparable between the groups (p>0.05). The rate of asymp- tomatic patients, diagnosed by screening was higher in Group 2 (31.1% vs. 14.6%; p<0.05). The major ity (57.6%) of the pat ients, diagnosed by screening, were pat ients with Type 1 d iabetes mellitus. Pediatric gastroenterology was the first admission outpatient clinic for 41.7% of patients in Group 1 and 35.2% of patients in Group 2. While the refer- ral rates from general ped iatric outpatient clinics were similar in both groups, there has been anincrease in the rate of referrals from other pe- diatric subspecialty clinics during the last 6 years. Conclusion: Ac- cording to the results of our study, the number of cases diagnosed with CD has increased in recent years. Increasing awareness among primary care physicians about CD-related atypical symptoms and screening pro- grammes are the major sources for diagnosis of new cases.
