    A 61-year-old female on anticoagulant treatment presented with anaemia and positive FOBT. No findings on gastroscopy and colonoscopy. Capsule endoscopy showed an angiodysplasia in jejunum and four polypoid lesions in ileum.

    With anterograde motorized spiral enteroscopy (MSE) we treated angiodysplasias with APC. In ileum we found>20 polyps of sizes 8-20mm, sessile and semipedunculated, and we performed polypectomy of two lesions for filiation. Proximal tattooing was carried out with a view to surgical treatment. As endoscopic resection was not feasible, ileocecal resection was performed.

    In the reported case, MSE was essential for the diagnosis and could lead to definitive treatment.
