Transcatheter coil embolization for coronary and pulmonary arteriovenous malformations
C oronary artery fistulas (CAFs) and pulmonary arteriovenous malformations (PAVMs) are relatively rare but clinically important cardiovascular abnormalities that may require percutaneous treatment. In most patients, the current preferred treatment for both lesions is transcatheter embolization using techniques that are well established in these two conditions. We present a review of CAF and PAV...
متن کامل[Mechanical coil embolization of pulmonary arteriovenous malformations].
PURPOSE To report our experience with mechanical coil embolization of pulmonary arteriovenous malformations (PAVM) MATERIAL AND METHODS: Coil embolizations were performed in 6 men (mean age 21.1, age range 20-23 years) with PAVM between 1999 and 2004. Five F Cobra catheters and various size coils were used for embolization. Clinically, cases were followed in every 3 months of their first year a...
متن کاملExtensive Renal Arteriovenous Malformations Treated by Transcatheter Arterial Embolization
An 84-year-old woman was referred to our department due to gross hematuria. Enhanced computed tomography revealed early enhancement of the right renal vein and multiple tortuous vessels around the right renal hilus, part of which had invaded into the renal parenchyma and renal calix. We diagnosed her with arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) and performed transcatheter arterial embolization (TAE)...
متن کاملEmbolization of Brain Arteriovenous Malformations
Cure: Because We Could and Because We Should We read with great interest the commentary by Jayaraman and Cloft about the necessity for curative embolization of brain arteriovenous malformations (AVMs), and we feel obliged to present our objections to their views. It is absolutely true that for any treatment to be justified, it needs to have high success and low complication rates. Because embol...
