Abstract
Purpose: To evaluate the angiographic recanalization rate of patients who underwent embolization juxta-proximal to the sac with AMPLATZER Vascular Plug type IV (AVP IV) for a simple pulmonary arteriovenous malformation (PAVM).
Material and methods: Ten patients (7 females and 3 males; median age, 47 years [range 28-83 years]) with 19 simple-type PAVMs who underwent embolization using an AVP IV between May 2015 and November 2021 were included in this retrospective study. The median feeding artery diameter on computed tomography was 4.0 mm (range 3-5.9 mm), and the median ratio of AVP IV size to feeding artery diameter on computed tomography was 1.5 (range 1.3-2.1). Technical success was defined by AVP IV placement at the junction between the pulmonary artery and the sac, or the pulmonary artery within 1 cm from the junction and beyond the last normal branch. The primary endpoint was the PAVM recanalization rate in selective or segmental pulmonary angiography performed 1 year post-embolization.
Results: The technical success rate of embolization juxta-proximal to the sac for simple-type PAVMs was 100%. None of the 19 lesions showed recanalization in pulmonary angiography performed 1 year after embolization. One patient experienced hemoptysis and pneumonia.
Conclusion: Embolization of simple-type PAVMs' feeding vessel using AVP IV is safe and effective, with a high technical success rate and no recanalization on pulmonary angiography performed at 1 year post-embolization.

CardioVascular and Interventional Radiology (CVIR) is the official journal of the Cardiovascular and Interventional Radiological Society of Europe, and is also the official organ of a number of additional distinguished national and international interventional radiological societies. CVIR publishes double blinded peer-reviewed original research work including clinical and laboratory investigations, technical notes, case reports, works in progress, and letters to the editor, as well as review articles, pictorial essays, editorials, and special invited submissions in the field of vascular and interventional radiology. Beside the communication of the latest research results in this field, it is also the aim of CVIR to support continuous medical education. Articles that are accepted for publication are done so with the understanding that they, or their substantive contents, have not been and will not be submitted to any other publication.
