Fig. 2From: Pulmonary arteriovenous malformation (PAVM) embolization: prediction of angiographically-confirmed recanalization according to PAVM Diameter changes on CTA 40-year-old female who underwent embolization 41 months earlier with a simple PAVM of the left lower lobe. Arrows, dashed arrows, and asterisks indicate draining vein, feeding artery, and venous sac, respectively. CT images obtained before (a) and after (b) embolization. The draining vein decreased from 2.4 mm to 1.1 mm after embolization (54.2 % reduction), and a vascular plug was deployed in the feeding artery. Occlusion was confirmed by pulmonary angiography obtained before (c) and after (d) embolizationBack to article page
