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.
