Central nervous system arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) are a rare cause of subarachnoid hemorrhage and neurologic deficits. About 90% of these lesions are supratentorial, with a smaller percentage occurring in the posterior fossa and an even smaller number found throughout the spine. Although
Hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS) is an acute viral disease characterized by fever, hemorrhage, and renal failure. Among the various hemorrhagic complications of HFRS, the spontaneous rupture of an arteriovenous malformation of the testicular vessels with a retroperitoneal hematoma is a
The clinical values of coils embolization in the treatment of pulmonary arteriovenous malformations (PAVM) and related complications were investigated. Eleven patients with PAVMs verified by pulmonary arterial angiography were treated by transcatheter coils embolization. Chest X-ray (11 cases),
Although arteriovenous malformation (AVM) is considered a congenital disease, few cases of AVM are manifested clinically in the neonatal period. In this paper a neonatal case of AVM manifested as intracranial hemorrhage is reported. A newborn female infant 12 days after birth, was admitted to a
OBJECTIVE
To report a case of congenital pelvic arteriovenous malformation (pAVM) with urinary retention.
METHODS
A 39-year-old male patient presented with inability to void urine for 8 h. He did not have a history of dysuria or fever, but had increasing urinary frequency and difficulty in voiding
Renal arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) are rare, with an incidence of approximately 0.04%. Diagnosis is often challenging due to mimics of AVMs. We report a case of renal AVM mimicking hydronephrosis on ultrasound and unenhanced computed tomography (CT). A 24-year-old female with background of
BACKGROUND
The purpose of the article was to assess the clinical results of mattress cerclage combined with electrochemical therapy and pingyangmycin injection after embolization in treating arteriovenous malformations (AVMs).
METHODS
During the period from January 2008 to December 2012, a total of
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the embolization of arteriovenous malformations of the maxillofacial region with PVA.
METHODS
8 cases (male:3, female:5) of arteriovenous malformations of the maxillofacial region comprised this study group. The embolic material used was PVA (Polyvinyl Alcohol Foam) particles
The rupture of a brain cranial arteriovenous malformation (bAVM) has been associated with pregnancy; however, due to scarcity of data about this rare condition, management still remains a dilemma both for obstetricians and neurophysicians. The management plan is decided after weighing the benefits
Ovarian vein syndrome is defined as obstructive uropathy caused by dilated ovarian vein with or without thrombosis. This is seen in the puerperal period as an acute condition with abdominal pain and fever and in multipara women with chronic recurrent abdominal pain. We report an ovarian vein
OBJECTIVE
To report a case of right pulmonary arteriovenous malformation (PAVM) affecting the right upper lobe, following the incidence of empyema thoracis in the contralateral lung.
METHODS
A 19-year-old, previously healthy male presented with acute respiratory distress, left pleuritic chest pain,
Primary intraventricular hemorrhage is very rare in adults and is even more infrequent in children. We present a 15-year-old girl who presented to the hospital because of sudden severe headache, vomiting and fever. Neurological examination only showed neck stiffness. A brain computed tomography
The patient who presents with new onset seizure is a difficult but common problem in emergency medicine. It is more difficult to make a specific etiologic diagnosis when the seizure patient is without fever, focal neurological deficit, prior medical history, electrolyte or acid-base imbalance. Such
A 50-year-old man had been treated for hemorrhagic duodenal ulcer. Although the patient was treated by proton pump inhibitors (PPI), the ulcer did not show any sign of improvement. Therefore, we also examined the pancreas, and obtained CT findings suggestive of arteriovenous malformation (AVM) from
