Key Words Taenia spp.; Intestinal bleeding; Iron-deficiency anemia; Endoscopy
Core Tip The novel contribution of our paper is to draw attention to taeniasis as a possible cause of gastrointestinal bleeding, since anemia is so far not recognized as a possible sign of taeniasis nor is taeniasis-induced hemorrhage described in medical text books. With this report we describe a case of ileal bleeding most probably caused by this kind of infestation. Our objective is to make clinicians aware of this rare but possible situation. Taeniasis should be therefore taken into account in the differential diagnosis of melena and/or hematochezia.
