Pulmonary arteriovenous malformations (PAVMs) are caused by an abnormal vascular communication between a pulmonary artery and vein. They are usually congenital in nature and are associated with considerable morbidity and mortality if left untreated. Transcatheter techniques are the favoured option for PAVM occlusion in children, and large lesions can have multiple feeder vessels that may not be appreciated until selective angiography is performed. We describe the successful occlusion of a large PAVM in a paediatric patient using multiple Amplatzer vascular plugs.
肺动静脉畸形（PAVMs）是由肺动脉和静脉之间异常的血管交通引起的。它们通常是先天性的，如果不治疗，会导致相当高的发病率和死亡率。在儿童中，经导管技术是 PAVM 闭塞的首选方法，而大的病变可能有多个供血血管，直到进行选择性血管造影才能发现。我们描述了使用多个 Amplatzer 血管塞成功闭塞一名儿科患者的大型 PAVM。
