Hereditary benign telangiectasia.

Hereditary benign telangiectasia is a very uncommon disorder characterized by generalized telangiectasias and angiomatous lesions of the skin. The diagnosis should be suspected in patients with such cutaneous signs, positive family history, no associated bleeding problems, and no mucosal involvement. We present a 74-year-old woman with typical clinical features of hereditary benign telangiectasia.
