Intracranial arteriovenous malformations (AVM) are rare lesions that are often discovered fortuitously. They should be identified on CT scan and MRI before resorting to angiography; the latter is used to prepare the treatment. This article describes the various types of subpial or dural AVM and the specific characteristics that enable their ...

Safely Treating a Pulmonary Embolism in a Patient With Hereditary Hemorrhagic Telangiectasia: A Case Report. [PDF]

The incidence of venous thromboembolisms among HHT patients is significantly greater than the general population. However, providing therapeutic anticoagulation in patients with an increased propensity for bleeding creates a clinical dilemma.
