Bandyopadhyay SK, Bandyopadhyay R, Chatterjee U
Abstract
Sir,
A 30-years-old lady, with a body weight of 38 kg, presented with history of recurrent bouts of haematemesis and heartburn for last one month. She also complained of passage of black, tarry stool. There was no history of smoking, analgesic use, alcohol intake, and risk factors for chronic liver disease. She received proton pump inhibitors and sucralfate for three weeks with partial relief of heartburn. On examination, there was pallor without any jaundice or lymphadenopathy. Systemic examination was unrevealing.
