Case description

At the gastric antrum also has some gastric antral vascular ectasias and also some tiny 1mm. capillary telangiectases that was treated by argon plasma coagulation as well as the jejuno and duodenum lesions. The concept of Rendu-Osler-Weber disease was first proposed by Rendu (1896), Osler (1901), and Weber (1907) In most cases a pattern of autosomal dominant inheritance is evident, but about 20% develop spontaneously in the absence of evidence of genetic transmission.
