Abstract:

Pulmonary arteriovenous malformations (PAVM's) are rare vascular anomalies involving the pulmonary vessels. Patients with PAVM are commonly asymptomatic despite the presence of a right to left shunt. We report aninteresting case of a patient with multiple PAVMs complicated with recurrent paradoxical brain embolism and leads to cerebral infarction.
