Congenital hepatic Arteriovenous Malformation: an unusual cause of neonatal persistent pulmonary hypertension
Journal of Perinatology, 2006Co-Authors: Chandran Alexander, Mark V. Zilberman, Beena G. Sood, Cristie Becker, Mary P. BedardAbstract:Congenital hepatic Arteriovenous Malformations are rare anomalies, which typically present in infancy with congestive heart failure, anemia, and hepatomegaly. Morbidity and mortality is high if the condition is not recognized and treated promptly. Hepatic Arteriovenous Malformation associated with persistent pulmonary hypertension of the newborn has been reported in two cases in the literature. We report a neonate who was referred for management of persistent pulmonary hypertension and was subsequently diagnosed with a large hepatic Arteriovenous Malformation. He underwent coil embolization following which pulmonary hypertension resolved.

spinal cord Arteriovenous Malformation in a person with congenital lymphatic abnormalities
American Journal of Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation, 1992Co-Authors: Joel Stein, Stanley J MyersAbstract:: Spinal cord Arteriovenous Malformations have been described in association with a variety of congenital diseases affecting the vasculature, including Klippel-Trenaunay-Weber syndrome, Rendu-Osler-Weber syndrome and others, but rarely in association with lymphatic abnormalities. We report the case of a young man with congenital lymphedema and Arteriovenous Malformations of one lower extremity and a spinal cord Arteriovenous Malformation. Awareness of the possible presence of a central nervous system Arteriovenous Malformation in individuals with pre-existing Arteriovenous and lymphatic abnormalities may be helpful in their diagnosis and management.

central retinal vein occlusion associated with retinal Arteriovenous Malformation
Ophthalmology, 1993Co-Authors: Howard Schatz, Lisa F Chang, Richard R Ober, Richard H Mcdonald, Robert N JohnsonAbstract:Purpose/Background: Retinal Arteriovenous Malformations can be seen in a variety of ways and have multiple, associated, ocular changes that can affect vision. The authors report two cases of retinal Arteriovenous Malformation. In each case, a central retinal vein occlusion developed. Methods: Each patient underwent clinical examination and fluorescein angiography. One patient was followed over a long period of time. Conclusion: The authors propose that a turbulent flow, high intravascular volume, and arteriolar pressure in the venous side of the retinal Arteriovenous Malformation may lead to vessel wall damage, thrombosis, and occlusion. They also suggest that compression of the central retinal vein by the mass effect of the Arteriovenous Malformation on the optic nerve further leads to turbulence and thrombosis.

Spontaneous regression of a renal Arteriovenous Malformation.
The Journal of urology, 2000Co-Authors: Takahiro Inoue, Takayuki HashimuraAbstract:A renal Arteriovenous fistula is an anomalous connection between the arterial and venous systems. An acquired type of Arteriovenous Malformation, especially after percutaneous renal biopsy, often resolves within a few months. However, most symptomatic congenital Arteriovenous Malformations require surgical or interventional therapy and their natural history remains unknown. We report a case of spontaneous regression of a congenital type of Arteriovenous Malformation.
