Enteropathy refers to any pathology of the intestine. Although enteritis specifically refers to an inflammation of the intestine, and is thus a more specific term than "enteropathy", the two phrases are sometimes used interchangeably.

Types

Specific types of enteropathy include:
If the condition also involves the stomach, it is known as "gastroenteropathy".
