Abstract

Bed bugs bite can be considered as a possible cause of chronic blood loss and anemia in individuals inhabiting in hyperinfested locations. We report the rare case of a patient with massive bed bugs infestation suffered from severe dementia, malnutrition and social isolation which provided susceptible background for severe anemia.
