  • Title: High-output heart failure due to hepatic arteriovenous fistula during pregnancy: a case report.
    Author: Gong B, Baken LA, Julian TM, Kubo SH.
    Journal: Obstet Gynecol; 1988 Sep; 72(3 Pt 2):440-2. PubMed ID: 3405561.
    Abstract:
    A 32-year-old multiparous gravida presented at 38 weeks' gestation with a second pregnancy complicated by congestive heart failure. Through noninvasive testing, hepatic arteriovenous malformation was diagnosed as the etiologic factor. This has not been reported as a cause of heart failure in pregnancy, although arteriovenous malformations in other organs have been associated with this complication.
