Techniques in vascular and interventional radiology are adapted to the ever-evolving clinical challenges that interventional operators face. In the case of rare diseases, supporting literature that guides an operator's plan for intervention is limited. As a result, published case reports and series can be utilized to direct future intervention and potentially help others tasked with similar clinical scenarios. The proceeding case offers an interventional solution to a clinical manifestation of an otherwise rare disease, Osler-Weber-Rendu (OWR) syndrome. The supporting literature for techniques in embolization of pulmonary arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) in OWR syndrome is limited due to disease rarity. Therefore, the objective of the following case is to offer clinical insights on how to perform this procedure successfully and critique methods previously utilized.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
