Usefulness 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...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Multi-detector computed tomographic (MDCT) angiography is a recently developed imaging technique that can study small vessels such as medullary arteries and veins. The purpose of this study was to evaluate MDCT angiography in diagnosing SDAVF. METHODS Eight patients with initial magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and clinical findings suggestive of spinal dural arterioven...

PURPOSE Here, we report two cases of early-onset post-nephrectomy renal arteriovenous fistula who were successfully managed by implantation of patent ductus arteriosus occluders. CASE REPORT Both patients were female, aged 38 and 36 years. They received left renal nephrectomy 9 and 6 months, respectively, with a complaint of chest congestion and dyspnea before admitting to our center. Compute...

We experienced a case in which a pulmonary arteriovenous fistula was found due to the occurrence of cerebral infarction. The patient was a 65-year-old female who had seen a local doctor for lightheadedness occurring upon rising in the morning. She underwent a cerebral MRI and was diagnosed to have a cerebral infarction. Upon closer examination, a chest radiograph revealed an abnormal shadow and...

DOI: 10.5935/abc.20150139 A 79-year-old man with prior aortic valve replacement was admitted to our hospital due to exertional angina. Single-photon emission computed tomography revealed ischemia at the territory of the left anterior descending artery (LAD) and the right coronary artery (RCA) (Figures 1 A and B). Coronary arteriography (Figures 1 C and D) and cardiac computed tomographic angiog...
