A 38-year-old man was admitted to the hospital due to a "suddenly developed right hemiplegia, unconsciousness and gaze to the right". Pulmonary arteriovenous fistulas (PAVFs) are rare but an important cause of stroke in young people, which is easy to be clinically neglected. Therefore, for young patients with pulmonary diseases and cerebral infarction, the possibility of PAVF should be considered.
一位 38 岁男性因“突发右侧偏瘫、意识丧失和向右凝视”而入院。肺动静脉瘘(PAVFs)虽少见,但却是青年人脑卒中的一个重要病因,易被临床忽视。因此,对于有肺部疾病和脑梗死的青年患者,应考虑到 PAVF 的可能性。
