Pulmonary arteriovenous malformations

Clinical Radiology, 1998
Pulmonary arteriovenous malformations (PAVMs) are uncommon lesions, but are the cause of considerable morbidity and occasional mortality. They most commonly occur in association with hereditary haemorrhagic telangectasia and screening of families with this condition is therefore important.

Pulmonary Arteriovenous Malformation

Circulation, 1999
A35-year-old white woman with a history of migraine headaches and a grade 2 systolic murmur presented with symptoms of slurred speech, left-sided facial droop, and left hemiparesis after a hysterectomy. These symptoms resolved over several days, and in an effort to identify a potential cardiac source of embolism, a transesophageal echocardiogram was ...

Pulmonary arteriovenous malformations

The Indian Journal of Pediatrics, 2001
Pulmonary arteriovenous malformations rarely present in childhood. Two cases are presented in this report. Both the cases presented clinically with cyanosis and clubbing without a cardiac murmur. The second case had cerebral abscess in addition. Both the cases underwent a contrast-enhanced echocardiography which suggested the presence of pulmonary ...

Pulmonary Arteriovenous Malformations

Chest, 2000
Helical CT scan (HCT), a noninvasive method, can detect pulmonary arteriovenous malformations (PAVMs). Its sensitivity is superior to that of global digitalized angiography, but patients receive a significant dose of radiation during diagnostic HCT. We compared HCT to contrast-enhanced pulmonary magnetic resonance angiography (CEMRA), a new noninvasive

Pulmonary arteriovenous malformations and their mimics

Clinical Radiology, 2015
Pulmonary arteriovenous malformations (PAVMs) are abnormal communications between the pulmonary arteries and veins, which result in a right-to-left (R-L) shunt with resultant hypoxemia, the severity of which will depend upon the size and number of lesions. Most PAVMs occur in individuals with hereditary haemorrhagic telangiectasia (HHT) and are a cause

Telangiectatic Pulmonary Arteriovenous Malformation

Journal of Thoracic Imaging, 2003
Telangiectatic pulmonary arteriovenous malformation is defined as a pulmonary arteriovenous malformation involving every segmental artery of at least one lobe of the lung. The authors report a case of telangiectatic pulmonary arteriovenous malformation in the left lower lobe of the lung.

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.
