Hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia (Osler-Weber-Rendu syndrome), a vascular disorder with autosomal dominant transmission, has a variety of clinical manifestations. In this case, we monitored a 65-year-old female who admitted to our hospital with gastrointestinal bleeding. Her history revealed repeated myocardial infarction (4 times). We diagnosed multiple angiodysplastic lesions with endoscopic examination. We evaluated the success of combination treatment with argon plasma coagulation and supportive approach at the time of diagnosis. argon plasma coagulation and bipolar coagulation methods have been reported as the preferred treatments in several studies. Therefore, we preferred the combination of argon plasma coagulation and conservative treatment methods in our case. The rapid healing observed with this treatment supports that combination treatment is effective in angiodysplastic lesions associated with hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia
