Hepatic Vascular Variants in Hereditary Haemorrhagic Telangiectasia: Imaging findings.

ABSTRACT

Hereditary haemorrhagic telangiectasia (HHT) is an autosomal dominant disorder characterised by vascular dysplasia. Hepatic vascular malformations (VMs) range from small telangiectases to significant vascular shunting. Here we report two cases of HHT. Case 1 had diffuse ectasia of the hepatic artery along its intrahepatic and extrahepatic course with a hepatic arterial aneurysm. Case 2 presented with ileal and hepatic telangiectases. Knowledge of these vascular variants is indispensable for clinicians and radiologists in aiding diagnosis and surgical and interventional management.
