Abstract
Iron-induced mucosal damage is a common finding within the upper gastrointestinal tract. Because of physiologic factors, however, high concentrations of iron rarely reach the distal gastrointestinal tract, thus injury there has not been reported. Here, we present a case in which multiple factors contributed to iron-induced injury in the colon.
