摘要
We report on the submucosal injection of bevacizumab (Avastin) at a dose of 0.3 to 3.75 mg per side in a patient with hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia. Application of such low doses has not been described in the literature yet. Our case report shows the positive effect of low-dose bevacizumab on therapy-refractory epistaxis. No complications were caused by the bevacizumab treatment.
