Abstract

Introduction: Uterine myoma is a benign tumor of the uterus and clinically apparent in up to 25% of reproductive-age women. Emerged silent uterine bleedings are commonly seen with myoma. Although therapies via surgical and radiological way are frequently used for the management of the tumor, medical therapies are considered as initial treatment. When the anemia diagnosis cannot be made and cannot properly treated; it is not only reduces the patient's life quality, but also threatens the patient's life.Case Report: In this case report; we aim to present a rare case of the lowest hemoglobin level in the literature by a value of 1.2 g/dL hemoglobin due to anemia resulted myoma uteri patient admitted to the emergency department by walk. All case with severe anemia at a level lower than 4 g/dL is rarely seen in the hospital emergency. Sometimes there are complaints of dysphagia, fragile nails, relative impotence, fatigue and cramps in the calves on climbing stairs, which are disproportionate to their anemia.Conclusion: In contrast to all recent reports, our case had the lowest hemoglobin levels reported ever, without a noisy clinical table indicating anemia.
