Kurzfassung:
Hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia (HHT) is a common bleeding disorder, but little is known regarding prevalence and risk factors for bleeding. Adult discharges with HHT and bleeding were identified by International Classification of Disease, 10th edition (ICD-10) codes in the National Inpatient Sample (NIS), 2016-2018. Prevalence estimates were weighted using NIS discharge-level weights to reflect national estimates. Risk factors for bleeding were determined by weighted multivariable logistic regression. Among 18 170 849 discharges, 2528 (0.01%) had HHT, of whom 648 (25.6%) had bleeding. Arteriovenous malformation (AVM) (31.9% vs 1.3%), angiodysplasia (23.5% vs 2.3%), telangiectasia (2.3% vs 0.2%), and epistaxis (17.9% vs 0.6%) were more common in HHT than in non-HHT patients (non-HHT), each P & lt; .001. In contrast, menstrual (HMB) and postpartum bleeding (PPH) were less common in reproductive-age HHT than non-HHT, each P & lt; .001. Anemia associated with iron deficiency (IDA), was equally common in HHT with or without bleeding (15.7% vs 16.0%), but more common than in non-HHT (7.5%), P & lt; .001. Comorbidities, including gastroesophageal reflux (25.9% vs 20.0%) and cirrhosis (10.0% vs 3.6%) were greater in HHT than non-HHT, each P & lt; .001. In multivariable logistic regression, peptic ulcer disease (OR, 8.86; P & lt; .001), portal vein thrombosis (OR, 3.68; P = .006), and hepatitis C, (OR, 2.13; P = .017) were significantly associated with bleeding in HHT. In conclusion, AVM and angiodysplasia are more common and HMB and PPH less common in patients in those with HHT than non-HHT. IDA deficiency is as common in HHT with and without bleeding, suggesting ongoing blood loss and need for universal iron screening.
