The recent generation of AMPLATZER Vascular Plug (AVP; ie, the AVP IV) was used for the occlusion of eight pulmonary arteriovenous malformations (PAVMs) in five patients. A treatment was considered successful when there was a reduction or disappearance of the aneurysmal sac. At a mean follow-up of 20.1 months, no recanalization of PAVMs was observed on multidetector computed tomographic angiography. This shows the AVP IV to be safe and effective as an embolic device to occlude PAVMs.
新一代的Amplatzer血管塞(AVP;即AVP IV)被用于封堵5例患者的8处肺动静脉畸形(PAVM)。当瘤囊缩小或消失时,治疗被认为成功。平均随访20.1个月时,在多排螺旋计算机断层血管造影上未观察到PAVM再通。这表明AVP IV作为封堵PAVM的栓塞装置是安全有效的。
