Capsule Endoscopy in the Diagnosis of Hookworm‐Induced Acute Intestinal Bleeding—A Case Report

Abstract

In endemic regions, unexplained small-bowel bleeding should prompt consideration of parasitic etiologies even when routine investigations are unrevealing. Advanced small-bowel imaging can directly demonstrate active sources of hemorrhage, enabling timely targeted therapy, preventing unnecessary procedures, and reducing morbidity associated with delayed or missed diagnosis.
