Minimal encephalopathy in hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia patients with portosystemic vascular malformations.

Orphanet J Rare Dis

December 2024

HHT Unit. Hospital Universitari Bellvitge, C/Feixa Llarga S/N. L'Hospitalet de Llobregat, 08907, Barcelona, Spain.

Background: Hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia (HHT) is characterized by telangiectasia and larger vascular malformations. Liver malformations are the most frequent visceral involvement including the presence of portosystemic malformations (PSM) that can cause hepatic encephalopathy. Minimal hepatic encephalopathy (mHE) is characterized by alterations of brain function in neuropsychological or neurophysiological tests and decreases quality of life.

Spontaneous Ischemic Cholecystitis in a Patient with Hereditary Hemorrhagic Telangiectasia (HHT).

J Clin Med

November 2024

Department of Digestive Surgery and Emergency Surgery, Edouard Herriot Hospital, Hospices Civils de Lyon, 69002 Lyon, France.

Hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia (HHT) is an autosomal dominant disorder characterized by abnormal blood vessel formation, leading to recurrent epistaxis, cutaneous and mucosal telangiectases, and visceral arteriovenous malformations (AVMs). Hepatic involvement may result in complications such as high-output heart failure, portal hypertension, and biliary ischemia. We report an uncommon case of ischemic cholecystitis in a patient with HHT.

Hereditary Hemorrhagic Telangiectasia (HHT) is an autosomal vascular dysplasia characterized by the presence of mucocutaneous telangiectasia and arteriovenous malformations in solid organs. The Curaçao criteria and/or detection of ALK1, ENG, and SMAD4 gene mutations are used for diagnosis. Juvenile Polyposis Syndrome (JPS) is diagnosed according to the number and localization of juvenile polyps, and family history of JPS.

Background: Radiation-induced intestinal injury (RIII) interrupts the scheduled processes of abdominal and pelvic radiotherapy (RT) and compromises the quality of life of cancer survivors. However, the specific regulators and mechanisms underlying the effects of RIII remain unknown. The biological effects of RT are caused primarily by DNA damage, and ataxia telangiectasia mutated (ATM) is a core protein of the DNA damage response (DDR).
