Abstract

Background and Aims:Chronic blood loss caused by the gastrointestinal system is the most common cause of iron deficiency anemia in men and postmenopausal women. In this study, patients who underwent endoscopy as a result of iron deficiency anemia were examined in terms of endoscopic approaches and etiological diagnosis. Methods: 181 patients (60 males, 121 females) who underwent endoscopic examination between January 2012 and June 2013 were evaluated retrospectively. Patients with hemoglobin

Abstract

Giriş ve Amaç:Gastrointestinal sistem kaynaklı kronik kan kaybı, erkek ve postmenapozal kadınlarda demir eksikliği anemisinin en sık nedenidir. Bu çalışmada, demir eksikliği anemisi nedeni ile endoskopi uygulanan hastaları, endoskopik yaklaşım ve etyolojik tanı yönünden inceledik. Gereç ve Yöntem:Ocak 2012 ve Haziran 2013 tarihleri arasında endoskopik inceleme yapılan 181 (K=121, E=60) olgu retrospektif olarak değerlendirildi. Çalışmaya hemoglobin düzeyi kadınlarda
