Angiodysplasia are common in patients over the age of 60. Heyde syndrome describes the coincidence of aortic valve stenosis and gastrointestinal bleeding from angiodysplasia. We describe one characteristic case of aortic valve stenosis and gastrointestinal bleeding from angiodysplasia which subsided after replacement with an aortic valve bioprosthesis. We review the current literature and discuss the actual explanation approaches for this phenomenon. CONCLUSION: There seems to be a clear indication for valve replacement in the case of aortic valve-stenosis and gastrointestinal bleeding due to angiodysplasia.
