  • Title: Novel image-guided management of a uterine arteriovenous malformation.
    Author: Przybojewski SJ, Sadler DJ.
    Journal: Cardiovasc Intervent Radiol; 2011 Feb; 34 Suppl 2():S161-6. PubMed ID: 20694468.
    Abstract:
    The investigators present a novel image-guided embolization, not previously described, of a uterine arteriovenous malformation (AVM) resistant to endovascular management. The uterus was exposed surgically, and Histoacryl (Braun, Fulda, Germany) was injected directly into the nidus using ultrasound guidance and fluoroscopy. The patient had a successful full-term pregnancy after this procedure. This technique may be a useful alternative management strategy in patients with uterine AVM who fail traditional endovascular embolization and who still desire fertility.
