title: [A woman with a rare gastrointestinal bleeding].
abstract: A 70-year old woman came to the emergency department with dyspnea and syncope. Hemoglobin level was 2,9 mmol/l (reference: 7,6-9,9 mmol/l). Gastroscopy was negative, CT-abdomen showed a hypervascular jejunal tumour. Laparoscopic jejunal segment resection was performed with resection of the tumour, after which the hemoglobin level improved. Pathological examination showed a gastrointestinal stromal tumour.
