摘要
Pulmonary arteriovenous malformations (PAVMs) are uncommon lesions that can be treated by surgery or interventional radiology. Forty-four PAVMs in 11 patients were occluded by transcatheter coil embolization with only one symptomatic complication, deep venous thrombosis, attributable to the procedure. There was a significant improvement in symptoms and a reduction in pulmonary AV shunting in the 9 patients in whom embolization of all visible discrete lesions was successfully completed. Coil embolization is an effective alternative to other methods of treating PAVMs.
