Complications and mortality in hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia: A population-based study
Conclusions:
Patients with HHT are at substantially increased risk of serious neurologic and hemorrhagic complications of the disease. Because a diagnosis of HHT is associated with a significantly poorer survival compared with those who have no disease, evaluation of new strategies to improve clinical management is required.
