Title: Diagnosis and Nonsurgical Management of Uterine Arteriovenous Malformation

Journal Article · · Cardiovascular and Interventional Radiology

Uterine arteriovenous malformation (AVM) is an uncommon problem and traditional treatment by hysterectomy excludes the possibility of future pregnancy. Developments in interventional techniques make transcatheter embolization of the feeding vessel(s) a therapeutic alternative, potentially preserving the patient's fertility. We present a case of successful endovascular treatment of uterine AVM.
