Abstract
The Herbst triad is a rare manifestation of gastroesophageal reflux disease and other esophageal pathologies. It is characterized by the presence of anemia, digital clubbing, and protein-losing enteropathy. Since evidence on this condition is anecdotal, the available information is mostly derived from case reports and its physio-pathology remains unclear. The following is the case of a schoolchild, whose symptoms were reversed once she underwent surgery.
