A 32 year male presented to our clinic with chronic iron deficiency anemia. Fecal occult blood was positive. Upper GI endoscopy and colonoscopy were normal. Capsule endoscopy revealed multiple jejunal and ileal ulcers with multiple sites of bleeding. A diagnosis of Crohn's disease was entertained and he was treated with mesalamine, thalidomide and parenteral iron therapy.

  • nice one..

  • Capsule endoscopy certainly is one of the best advances in diagnostics, I think. Especially useful in diagnosting a problem that goes undetected by upper GI endoscopy and colonoscopy, since that problem may lie right in the small bowel
