Abstract:

Hereditary Haemorrhagic Telangiectasia (HHT), (also termed as Osler-Weber-Rendu syndrome) is a genetic vascular condition marked by telangiectatic vascular lesions of the skin and mucous membranes, accompanied by arteriovenous malformations involving visceral organs. We present a case of HHT in a patient who exhibited recurrent nose bleeds and haemoptysis, cutaneous telangiectasias, pulmonary arteriovenous malformations, and hepatic vascular involvement. Diagnosis was confirmed according to the Curaçao criteria and further substantiated by imaging, highlighting the need for thorough organ evaluation and multidisciplinary management in HHT patients, even when neurological manifestations are not present.
