BACKGROUND Uterine arteriovenous malformation is a rare but potential life-threatening source of bleeding. A high index of suspicion and accurate diagnosis of the condition in a timely manor are essential because instrumentation that is often used for other sources of uterine bleeding can be lead to massive hemorrhage. CASE We describe here a case of uterine arteriovenous malformation. A 32-y...

BACKGROUND Uterine arteriovenous malformation is a rare but life-threatening condition that accounts for 1-2% of massive vaginal bleeding. Uterine arteriovenous malformations are less common after menopause. The condition can be diagnosed using Doppler ultrasound, magnetic resonance imaging, computed tomography, and pelvic angiography. CASE PRESENTATION We report a postmenopausal patient with...

A placental site trophoblastic tumor requires care in management and a prompt diagnosis. Placental site trophoblastic tumor is a rare type of gestational trophoblastic disease and displays non-specific presentations similar to those of uterine arteriovenous malformation and those of non-neoplastic gestational trophoblastic diseases such as placental polypoid tumor. Diagnosis from biopsy is extr...

Postpartum uterine bleeding is not uncommon and is caused by a variety of obstetrical and gynecological disorders, such as retained placenta, dysfunctional bleeding, and endometrial polyps. Placental polyps and uterine arteriovenous malformation are disorders often encountered in cases of abnormal uterine bleeding in the late puerperal period. These patients may experience life-threatening blee...

Fewer than 100 cases of uterine arteriovenous malformation are reported which can cause lifethreatening torrential hemorrhage. Prompt diagnosis and treatment are necessary with keeping differential diagnosis of retained products of conception and gestational trophoblastic disease in mind in cases of postpregnancy or post-abortal arteriovenous malformation. We report a case of 27 year old young ...

Uterine arterio venous malformation is uncommon cause of menorrhagia. We report a rare case of arteriovenous malformation diagnosed after 18 years of suffering from menorrhagia.

Uterine arteriovenous malformation (AVM) is a rare condition, with fewer than 100 cases reported in the literature. Despite it being rare, it is a potentially life-threatening condition. This case report describes a 33-year-old woman who presented with secondary post-partum hemorrhage. Transabdominal ultrasound (US) of the pelvis showed increased vascularity with multidirectional flow of the ut...

Uterine arteriovenous malformation (AVM) is a little known condition of which, to date, very few cases have been described. It has a very diverse symptomatology, even though in most cases, it is diagnosed during a severe and acute haemorrhagic event. Its treatment can vary from expectant management to hysterectomy; however, current evidence suggests that the embolisation of uterine arteries is ...
