Recurrent melena in a diagnosed case of Bernard Soulier syndrome.

Bernard Soulier Syndrome is a genetically inherited platelet disorder that commonly presents with symptoms of impaired blood coagulation, such as epistaxis, menorrhagia, and petechiae formation. Here we present a case of Bernard Soulier Syndrome in which the individual has presented with melena, which is the appearance of black tarry stools due to bleeding from the upper gastrointestinal tract. This presentation is rare and should be discussed so that appearance of the less common symptoms can be caught early, leading to an early diagnosis and consequently earlier and more effective management options.
