Hereditary haemorrhagic telangiectasia is a genetic condition of abnormal blood vessel formation resulting from an imbalance of pro- and anti-angiogenic products of the transforming growth factor β/bone morphogenetic protein signalling pathway which contributes to vascular remodelling and maintenance. Hepatic vascular malformations are common although less frequently symptomatic, but may result in high-output cardiac failure, portal hypertension and biliary ischaemia. Whilst the understanding of the genetic and cell signalling pathways that are the hallmark of hereditary haemorrhagic telangiectasia have been clarified, there remain challenges in therapy for these patients. Only patients with symptomatic hepatic vascular malformations require treatment, with most (63%) responding to first-line medical therapy. For non-responders, bevacizumab is effective in reducing cardiac output in those with heart failure secondary to hepatic vascular malformations as well as other manifestations of the disease. Although liver transplantation is the only curative option, optimal timing is critical. Novel anti-angiogenetic drugs and those that target aberrant cell signalling pathway are being explored.
