Core Tip	To our knowledge, this is the first “Egyptian” case of primary intestinal lymphangiectasia. In addition, its presentation is rare with blood loss anemia in contrast to the more common presentation with hypo-proteinemia and edema. So, we are reporting a case with a rare clinical presentation of a rare disease. Double balloon enteroscopy was so beneficial in the diagnosis of the case superior to capsule endoscopy because the advantage of biopsy and histopathologic examination. There is controversy about medical treat-ment options, surgical treatment may be preferred in localized lesions otherwise, has no role. Prognosis may be favorable.
