Case description

CLASSIFICATION — The terms "angiodysplasias," "arteriovenous malformations," and "vascular ectasias" have been used synonymously. Angiodysplasias are usually distinguished from telangiectasias, which, although anatomically similar, are usually referred to in the context of systemic or hereditary diseases. Since most vascular abnormalities are detected during endoscopy, a taxonomy based upon endoscopic appearance has been proposed. The classification system recognizes the location, size, and number of angiodysplasias.
