Core Tip	Iron deficiency anemia (IDA) is a common problem especially in the elderly. Small bowel (SB) lesions may be the source of IDA. Capsule endoscopy (CE) provides direct visualization of entire SB mucosa. Angioectasia is one of the commonest lesions seen on the CE in elderly with IDA. The diagnostic yield of CE for IDA increases with advancing age. Balloon assisted enteroscopy is used to treat the lesions seen on CE causing IDA.
