In this article the authors discuss less frequent causes of gastrointestinal bleeding. "Common" less frequent causes of gastrointestinal bleeding include solitary rectal ulcer syndrome, colonic varices, mesenteric vascular insufficiency, small bowel diverticula, Meckel's diverticulum, aortoenteric fistula, vasculitis, small intestinal ulceration, endometriosis, radiation-induced injury, and intussusception. Less frequent causes of gastrointestinal bleeding that have been recently described include portal colopathy, diversion colitis, and gastrointestinal bleeding in runners.
