Abstract

Patients with symptomatic HHT liver disease have diffuse hepatic telangiectases, a dilated common hepatic artery, and a high incidence of biliary abnormalities. Multiphasic CT is useful in diagnosing liver involvement due to HHT; however, no strong correlation was seen between CT findings and the clinical subtype of HHT liver disease.
