In many cases, the origin of lower gastrointestinal bleeding is not completely elucidated. The highest percentage of cases have their origin in the colon, with diverticula and angiodysplasias being the most common causes. Heyde syndrome is a rare diagnosis that consists of the association of GI bleeding due to angiodysplasia and aortic stenosis, due to a degenerative process and an acquired deficiency of von Willebrand factor type IIA.The objective of this work is to present a rare case of HDB, whose treatment consists of surgery.
