Selective spinal cord angiography is the estab lished method for evaluating patients with vascular lesions of the cord. This technique is technically demanding , and the examination takes considerab le amounts of time and rad iation [1].

Rare malformation of glans penis: arteriovenous malformation.

Pediatric glans penis malformations, especially arteriovenous malformations (AVM), are very rare. Herein, we report two rare cases. A 14-year-old boy attended our outpatient clinic with chief complaints of purple swelling and rapidly growing lesion on the glans penis.

Pulmonary arteriovenous malformation.

Pulmonary arteriovenous malformations (PAVM) are rare pulmonary vascular anomalies. Although most patients are asymptomatic, PAVMs can cause dyspnoea from right-to-left shunt. Because of paradoxical emboli, various central nervous system complications have been described including stroke and brain abscess. There is a strong association between PAVM and hereditary haemorrhagic telangiectasia. Ch...
