Obscure gastrointestinal bleeding is a common cause of chronic anemia, severity of anemia depends on the cause. We present the case of a patient with 2 causes undervalued in our midst. In the present article we present a case report of a farmer patient, without past medical history, who presented with symptoms of weakness, mucocutaneous pallor, documenting severe ferropenic anaemia, requering trasnfuctional support. We identified cameron lesions as the source of anaemia. |
