ABSTRACT
Pulmonary arterovenous malformation(PAVM) is an uncommon congenital anomaly. As pulmonary arteriovenous malformation is a direct communication between the Branches of pulmonary artery and vein which originated from the malformation of capillary development major disturbances in gas exchange can result. This malformation results in the several symptoms such as dyspnea hemopyssis cyanosis, and severe neurologic complaints. However, the most of patients are usually asymptomatic. Selective pulmonary angiography is well known the helpful diagnostic method. Recently, therapeutic embolization has been advocated as the treatment of choice for pulmonary arteriovenous malformations. We report a case of multiple pulmonary arteriovenous malformation, which was detected on the simple chest X-ray and snccessfully treated with coil embolization in a 19-year-old asymptomatic woman.
