Improvement in exercise performance after pulmonary arteriovenous malformation embolization.
Balloon or coil embolization has become established therapy for multiple PAVMs. We were able to evaluate a 32-year-old woman with multiple PAVMs characterized by significant orthodeoxia, intrapulmonary shunt, dyspnea and limited exercise tolerance before and after balloon and coil embolization. After embolization of three of her largest PAVMs, repeat evaluation revealed improvement in her sympt...
متن کامل[Mechanical coil embolization of pulmonary arteriovenous malformations].
PURPOSE To report our experience with mechanical coil embolization of pulmonary arteriovenous malformations (PAVM) MATERIAL AND METHODS: Coil embolizations were performed in 6 men (mean age 21.1, age range 20-23 years) with PAVM between 1999 and 2004. Five F Cobra catheters and various size coils were used for embolization. Clinically, cases were followed in every 3 months of their first year a...
متن کاملDuodenal arteriovenous malformation: endosonographic diagnosis and coil embolization.
A 67-year-old man with a history of melena and a hemoglobin level of 4.8g/dL was referred to our center for endoscopic evaluation. He had no significant comorbidities and his liver and renal functions were normal. His anemia was corrected with multiple blood transfusions. As upper gastrointestinal endoscopy showed fresh blood in the second part of the duodenum, a side-viewing endoscopy was carr...
متن کاملUsefulness of dynamic volume scanning with 320-row CT in detecting recanalization of pulmonary arteriovenous fistula after coil embolization
Pulmonary arteriovenous fistula is a congenital and rarely acquired anomalous direct communications between pulmonary arteries and veins. Transcatheter embolization using metallic coil or detachable balloon is one of the common treatment procedure. However, recanalization after the embolization is one of the concern and its differentiation from the retrograde filling via pulmonary vein is diffi...
متن کاملSuccessful Treatment of a Large Pulmonary Arteriovenous Malformation by Repeated Coil Embolization
Pulmonary arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) are caused by abnormal vascular communications between the pulmonary arteries and pulmonary veins, which lead to the blood bypassing the normal pulmonary capillary beds. Pulmonary AVMs result in right-to-left shunts, resulting in hypoxemia, cyanosis, and dyspnea. Clinical signs and symptoms vary depending on the size, number, and flow of the AVMs. Tr...
