Summary:Abstract Sea-blue histiocytosis accompanies a variety of conditions including genetic and acquired lipid metabolic or ceroid storage disorders (such as type B Niemann–Pick disease), myelodysplastic disease, thalassemia, and secondary infections. A case of sea-blue histiocytosis is demonstrated with an involvement of the entire small bowel, probably caused by kalaazar. In the video, double-balloon endoscopy demonstrates the involvement of the small bowel. This article is part of an expert video encyclopedia.
