Hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia (HHT) or Osler-Weber-Rendu syndrome (ICD 9 448.0 [1] / ICD 10 178.0 [2] / ORPHA774) is an autosomal dominant genetic disease. It is characterized by the appearance of anomalous vascular structures: telangiectasias (small in size) or arteriovenous malformations (AVM).
ICD-10 code R04. 0 for Epistaxis is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Symptoms, signs and abnormal clinical and laboratory findings, not elsewhere classified .
Drugs that block blood vessel growth. One of the most promising treatments for HHT is bevacizumab (Avastin) given through a tube in a vein (intravenously). Other drugs that block blood vessel growth are being studied for HHT treatment. Examples include pazopanib (Votrient) and pomalidomide (Pomalyst).
Telangiectasias are small, widened blood vessels on the skin. They are usually harmless, but may be associated with several diseases.
HHT; Osler-Weber-Rendu syndrome; Osler-Weber-Rendu disease; Rendu-Osler-Weber syndrome. Hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia (HHT) is an inherited disorder of the blood vessels that can cause excessive bleeding. Blood used by the body is brought back to the heart and lungs by the veins of the body.

CPT 30901/30903 are used when you control epistaxis via means such as cautery but an endoscope is not used. CPT 31238 is reported when the epistaxis is treated while you're using an endoscope (ie, the scope and instrument to control epistaxis are parallel to each other in the nose).
1, and I10. 9) who used medical services 3 times or more and received antihypertensive medications. Patients with epistaxis were defined as those with the diagnostic code of epistaxis (ICD-10 code R04. 0).
The exact cause of telangiectasia is unknown. Researchers believe several causes may contribute to the development of telangiectases. These causes may be genetic, environmental, or a combination of both. It's believed that most cases of telangiectasia are caused by chronic exposure to the sun or extreme temperatures.
Scleroderma. Telangiectasias occur in patients who have both types of scleroderma: Limited scleroderma – also called CREST syndrome, which stands for Calcinosis, Raynaud's phenomenon, Esophageal dysmotility, Sclerosis and Telangiectasia.
Summary. HHT is a genetic disorder associated with small AVM (telangiectases) of the skin, nose, and GI tract, and larger AVM of the brain, lung or liver. The AVM in the lung and brain are treatable but because AVM can continue to grow/enlarge, patients need careful and continued monitoring.
Telangiectasias /tɛlˌæn.dʒiː.ɛkˈteɪ.zi.ə/ also known as spider veins or angioectasias, are small dilated blood vessels near the surface of the skin or mucous membranes, measuring between 0.5 and 1 millimeter in diameter. They can develop anywhere on the body but are commonly seen on the face around the nose, cheeks, and chin.
