Heyde syndrome is a triad of aortic stenosis, acquired coagulopathy, and anemia 
due to bleeding from intestinal angiodysplasia. Here we describe a case of this 
syndrome. An 80-year-old woman with severe aortic stenosis was referred to our 
department for an aortic valve replacement. She suffered from recurrent 
iron-deficiency anemia and required transfusions every 2 weeks. Gastroscopy and 
colonoscopy were normal with the exception of angiodysplasia without bleeding in 
the cecum. After aortic valve replacement her anemia was resolved. She was 
discharged on postoperative day 22. No transfusions were needed after the 
procedure. To date, her hemoglobin has remained stable at >10 mg/dL.
