Pregnancy and delivery after percutaneous embolization with a combination of microvascular plugs and hydrogel-coated coils for unilateral diffuse pulmonary arteriovenous malformations: a case report

Kayo Ogino, Tomohiro Hayashi, Kenji Waki, Masanobu OhyaKurashiki Central Hospital.Japan European Heart Journal Case ReportsEur Heart J Case Rep 2023; 7:DOI: 10.1093/ehjcr/ytad468 AbstractBackground: Pulmonary arteriovenous malformations (PAVMs) are abnormal communications between the pulmonary arteries and veins; right-to-left shunts can cause hypoxaemia, emboli to systemic circulation, and brain abscesses. Cyanosis during pregnancy may increase the probability of premature […]
