Pulmonary Arteriovenous Malformations and Coronary Artery Fistulas
P ulmonary arteriovenous malformations (PAVMs) and coronary artery fistulas (CAFs) are infrequent clinical problems but can potentially cause significant morbidity and mortality.

متن کاملPulmonary arteriovenous malformations treated with embolotherapy.
Pulmonary arteriovenous malformations (PAVM) represent pulmonary vascular anomalies and in majority of cases are congenital in origin. We report a case that presented with predominant complaints of dyspnoea on exertion and cyanosis. Clinical examination revealed a bruit in the left lower interscapular and infrascapular areas which led us to suspect PAVM. The diagnosis was established on the bas...
