Reply to Eker et al. Comment on "Kilian et al. Comparing Characteristics and Treatment of Brain Vascular Malformations in Children and Adults with HHT. J. Clin. Med. 2023, 12 , 2704".

The article is a response to a comment made by Eker et al. regarding a publication titled "Comparing Characteristics and Treatment of Brain Vascular Malformations in Children and Adults with HHT." The authors of the response acknowledge the limitations of their study, including the fact that their cohort was highly selected and did not include brain VM subtypes. They also address the issue of the prevalence of intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) in HHT-related brain VMs, stating that their reported prevalence aligns with previously reported data. The authors appreciate the suggestions made by Eker et al. and emphasize the need for future research to explore treatment trends and complications in patients with brain VMs. They also highlight the complexity of screening for brain VMs in children with HHT and the importance of ongoing data and research in making evidence-based clinical decisions.
