Abstract

Hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia (HHT), or Rendu-Osler-Weber syndrome, is an autosomal dominant vascular disorder with low prevalence that presents a wide variety of clinical manifestations due to multiple vascular lesions in a wide variety of organs and tissues.

We present the case of a 63-year-old woman with HHT of 18 years’ evolution, intrahepatic portal systemic shunts, and severe pulmonary hypertension, with dyspnea at minimum effort.
