title: Hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia with florid osseous dysplasia. Report of a case with differential diagnostic considerations.
abstract: The clinical presentation of hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia with various manifestations has been well described as has florid osseous dysplasia. There have been no cases reported of the two pathologic entities in the same patient. We present a case with the simultaneous occurrence of hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia and florid osseous dysplasia with important considerations for differential diagnosis, and we discuss whether this case presents a potential syndrome.
