title: [A woman with ongoing anaemia].
abstract: In a 65-year-old female with iron deficiency anaemia, video capsule endoscopy showed an ulcerative polyp in the proximal ileum. After histological examination we made the diagnosis 'granuloma pyogenicum', a rare cause of gastrointestinal bleeding. After partial resection of the small intestine, the anaemia was cured.
