{{ICD10 transition status | OldDxArticle = | CurrentStatus = reconciled }} == Additional Info == Osler-Weber-Rondu syndrome (Hereditary Hemorrhagic Telangiectasia / HHT) is a rare autosomal dominant genetic disorder that leads to abnormal blood vessel formation in the skin, mucous membranes, and often in organs such as the lungs, liver, and brain. Telangiectasia (small vascular malformations) may occur in the skin and mucosal linings of the nose and gastrointestinal tract. [[Arteriovenous malformation (AVM)]] is an abnormal connection between arteries and veins, bypassing the capillary system. This vascular anomaly is widely known because of its occurrence in the central nervous system (usually [[Arteriovenous malformation (AVM)]]), but can appear in any location. Although many AVMs are asymptomatic, they can cause intense pain or bleeding or lead to other serious medical problems. == Alternate ICD10s to consider coding instead or in addition == *[[Disorder of nose and/or sinuses, infectious or noninfectious NOS]] *[[Gastritis, hemorrhagic]] *[[Gastritis, NOS]] *[[Cerebral aneurysm, nonruptured]] *[[Hemorrhage, subarachnoid or ruptured cerebral aneurysm]] == Candidate [[Combined ICD10 codes]] == == Related CCI Codes == {{Data Integrity Check List}} == Related Articles == {{Related Articles}} {{ICD10 footer}} {{EndPlaceHolder}}
