Cameron lesions are a rare cause of upper gastrointestinal bleeding that is localized to the gastric body mucosa of patients with large hiatal hernias. It causes occult bleeding and chronic iron-deficiency anemia. These lesions are often missed on initial endoscopy and can cause fatal complications. To avoid the high morbidity and mortality associated with this condition, it must be promptly diagnosed and treated. This activity reviews the evaluation and treatment of Cameron lesion and highlights the role of the interprofessional team in evaluating and treating patients with this condition.
