Abstract

Sajad Wani

Anaemia is a condition of multifactorial basis that affects about 25% of world population. Sudden loss of 50% of blood leads to death due to hypovolemic shock, but chronic longstanding non-significant bleeding without rapid decrease in haemoglobin level can be tolerated and compensated for a very long period. In this case report we present a 40-year-old fully conscious female with abdominal pain which was manifested with haemoglobin level of 1.8 g/dl.
