Colonic varices are usually related to hepatocellular, portosystemic or other co-morbid conditions. Lesions of idiopathic origin are uncommon and they present as profuse rectal bleeding or with long-standing anemia.

Very few cases of such lesions have been described till now. Idiopathic colonic varices are very rare and clinically misleading. But a differential diagnosis should be considered in cases where patient presenting with rectal bleeding of varying degrees of uncertain cause.
