    Brunner's gland adenoma - a rare cause of iron deficiency anaemia
    (Faculty of Medicine. Colombo, 1997) Kumarasinghe, M.P.; Fernando, K.L.
    A 35 year old female who hadepigastric pain and iron deficiency anaemia for several months was diagnosed to have a Brunner's gland adenoma. Upper gastro-intestinal endoscopy (UGIE) performed twice and barium meal follow through failed t reveal any abnormality initially. The third UGIE showed a polyp in the junction between the 1st and 2nd parts of the duodenum. Histology of the polyp showed features of a Brunner's adenoma.
