liver findings in patients with hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia
conclusion the involved liver with hht typically shows vascular shunting and biliary diseases. also, arteriovenous shunts may be vulnerable to biliary diseases. results (i) three types of shunting were found in the livers, including arteriovenous (hepatic artery to hepatic vein) in 6 cases, arterioportal (hepatic artery to portal vein) in 2 cases, and portal venous (portal vein to hepatic vein)...
متن کاملHereditary Hemorrhagic Telangiectasia with Hepatic Vascular Malformations
Hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia (HHT) is a rare autosomal dominant hereditary disease. Early diagnosis is important to avoid complications from vascular lesions, but diagnosis is difficult in asymptomatic patients. A 69-year-old Japanese male patient was referred to our hospital for evaluation of hepatic vascular malformations. He had mild anemia with iron deficiency, and dynamic contrast...

BACKGROUND Hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia (HHT), also known as Osler-Weber-Rendu syndrome, is a rare autosomal dominant genetic vascular dysplasia. OBJECTIVES The aim is to characterize the liver involvement of HHT by multi-detector helical computed tomography. PATIENTS AND METHODS Through the use of multi-detector helical computed tomography, scan data derived from 12 cases of HHT w...
متن کاملAsymptomatic pulmonary arteriovenous malformations in children with hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia.
BACKGROUND Children with Hereditary Hemorrhagic Telangiectasia (HHT) may have pulmonary arteriovenous malformations (AVMs), which can lead to symptoms of shortness of breath, exercise intolerance, clubbing, cyanosis and hemoptysis. However, some patients with pulmonary AVMs may be asymptomatic, placing them at risk for complications such as stroke or brain abscess if they are not identified and...
متن کاملLiver transplantation for cardiac failure in patients with hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia.
Liver involvement in hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia may lead to high-output cardiac failure. Few data have been reported on orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT) for these patients. In this paper, we describe two patients treated by OLT as a salvage procedure for cardiac failure, and we review literature on this subject. Our two patients resumed normal cardiac function after OLT. This p...
