Ağır Demir Eksikliği Anemisi ile Prezente Olan Hiatal Herni: Olgu Sunumu

Demir eksikliği anemisi DEA pediatrik popülasyonda sık görülür. Yetersiz demir alımına bağlı nütrisyonel anemi en sık sebebidir. Ancak hayati tehdit eden ağır DEA ile başvuran hastalarda altta yatan sebep detaylı araştırılmalıdır. Dokuz aylık kız hasta halsizlik nedeniyle başvurduğunda hemoglobin 3,5 g/dl saptandı ve laboratuar bulguları DEA ile uyumluydu. Hastada DEA etyolojisi araştırıldığında hiatal herni saptandı. Pediatristlerin ciddi veya medikal tedaviye dirençli DEA’nin hiatal herni ile ilişkili olabileceğinin farkında olması gerekir.
