This report describes three patients who developed the rare complication of gastrointestinal hemorrhage following cardiac catheterization. These cases illustrate the diverse mechanisms by which bleeding may occur. The important predisposing factors appear to be widespread atherosclerosis, prolonged hypotension, and gastrointestinal disease potentially associated with bleeding.
