Pulmonary arteriovenous malformations are abnormal connections between a pulmonary artery and a pulmonary vein that can lead to ischemic stroke and brain abscess due to right-to-left shunting of blood. Embolization is currently considered the first treatment option for pulmonary arteriovenous malformations owing to its minimal invasiveness. This review updates the indications and techniques for the embolization of pulmonary arteriovenous malformations and determines the persistence of pulmonary arteriovenous malformations following embolization based on the most recent literature.
肺动静脉畸形是肺动脉和肺静脉之间的异常连接，由于血液从右向左分流，可导致缺血性中风和脑脓肿。由于其微创性，目前栓塞被认为是肺动静脉畸形的首选治疗方法。本综述更新了肺动静脉畸形栓塞的适应证和技术，并根据最新文献确定了栓塞后肺动静脉畸形的残留情况。
