Polysplenia with pulmonary arteriovenous malformations

Pediatric Cardiology, 1993
A patient with polysplenia syndrome, dextrocardia, left atrial isomerism, normal great vessel relationships, and no intracardiac shunts developed progressive cyanosis and clubbing. Pulmonary arteriovenous malformations (PAVMs) were diagnosed by angiography and confirmed by lung biopsy.

Pulmonary arteriovenous malformation in children

Pediatrics International, 2015
AbstractAlthough pulmonary arteriovenous malformations (PAVM) are relatively rare in children, they are important in the differential diagnosis of common pulmonary problems, such as hypoxemia, hemoptysis and dyspnea on exertion. We report the cases of two PAVM patients with different presentations and describe the treatment strategies.

Pulmonary arteriovenous malformations in children

Journal of Pediatric Surgery, 1979
Pulmonary arteriovenous malformations are a life-threatening, but curable, cause of persistent cyanosis in children. Abnormal communications may be single or multiple and are usually in the lower lobes. Three patients with pulmonary arteriovenous malformations have recently been managed at this hospital.

Pulmonary arteriovenous malformation in the neonate

Journal of Pediatric Surgery, 1993
Pulmonary arteriovenous malformation (AVM) is a congenital condition, but because the symptoms usually do not occur until middle age, the diagnosis is often delayed. The authors report on a neonate, diagnosed at 2 weeks of age, who was treated by lobectomy at 35 months of age.

Congenital pulmonary arteriovenous malformations

Pediatric Surgery International, 2002
We report the rare case of an 11-year-old boy who presented with intractable hypoxaemia and a pulmonary mass. Investigations revealed this to be a pulmonary arteriovenous malformation. It was entirely confined to the right middle lobe and was successfully treated via a right middle lobectomy.

Pulmonary arteriovenous malformation in children

Pediatric Pulmonology
AbstractPulmonary arteriovenous malformations (PAVMs) are rare abnormalities observed mainly in children with hereditary haemorrhagic telangiectasia (HHT). A majority of patients are asymptomatic at the time of detection. However, complications such as hypoxemia, stroke, cerebral abscess and massive hemoptysis can arise if larger PAVMs remain untreated.

Pulmonary Arteriovenous Malformations

2006
Although embolization is a safe and effective treatment in the management of PAVMs, long-term follow-up of patients is mandatory to document aneurysmal retraction or reperfusion of treated lesions and to detect growth of small PAVMs reaching the threshold size for neurologic emboli.

Pulmonary Arteriovenous Malformations

2010
Like all arteriovenous malformations, pulmonary arteriovenous malformations (PAVM) “steal, shunt, or bleed.” PAVMs are important as systemic venous blood can bypass the lungs, leading to hypoxia or paradoxical embolism.
