Abstract
Osler-Rendu-Weber disease, or hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia, is a vascular disease with autosomal dominant transmission. The liver is involved in 31% of patients with hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia (1). It appears that the lesions uncommonly causes serious disease. We report the imaging findings and the therapy in a case with extensive telangiectasis in the liver.
