[Hypoferric anaemia due to a leiomyosarcoma of the proximal jejunum (author's transl)].
In an outpatient the diagnosis of a hypoferric anaemia and a transitory, masked, intestinal bleeding led to the discovery of a tumour in the proximal jejunum. The diagnosis was confirmed by operation. Radiographs and surgical specimen corresponded to each other. The exact diagnosis leiomyosarcoma could only be made histologically. Sarcomata of the proximal jejunum are extremely rare.
