ABSTRACT
Osler-Weber-Rendu syndrome is an autosomical dominant condition. Although
epistaxis is the most frequent symptom, many other visceral implications have to be
considered while the workup takes place. While Anti-VEGF are the cornerstone of
the treatment, there is no consensus regarding the specific dose to be administered.
We communicate de case of a patient with Osler-Weber-Rendu syndrome attended
at our Hospital in which we prescribed an atypical dose of bevacizumab with good
outcome.
