Abstract

Obscure gastrointestinal bleeding poses a diagnostic challenge for gastroenterologists, though advancements such as video capsule endoscopy and enteroscopy have led to increased detection of small bowel lymphangiomas. Lymphangiomas are benign tumors with dilated lymphatic channels that rarely affect the jejunum or ileum. We present a rare case of jejunal lymphangioma causing obscure gastrointestinal bleeding diagnosed by video capsule endoscopy, confirmed by enteroscopy, and successfully treated with surgical resection.
