We present the case of a 79-years-old male with episodes of digestive bleeding in the form of melenas in which two pathological findings were observed as potential causes: ectopic pancreas in subpyloric position and diffuse colon angiodysplasia. The difficult management of the digestive bleeding when two lesions are associated as potential causes is stressed.
