We report a case of a 69-year-old male patient with gastrointestinal bleeding manifesting with melaena. Upper and lower endoscopy were negative for the bleeding aetiology. On small bowel capsule endoscopy, several violaceous lesions in the proximal jejunum were identified. The patient was submitted to segmental intestinal resection being diagnosed with a cavernous jejunum haemangioma, a rare cause of acute intestinal bleeding.
