“…The septic embolus of a PAVM is mixed with abdominal arterial blood under pulmonary arterial pressure, which can be carried to the liver, where it can form liver abscesses. [ 5 ] Cardiogenic liver disease—Pulmonary venous blood flowed into the abdominal artery blood via the branch, which resulted in a reduction in the oxygen supply in the pulmonary artery. In addition, substances such as CO 2 and 5-hydroxytryptamine can flow to the hepatic artery through the venous system.…”

Rationale:Pulmonary arteriovenous malformations (PAVMs) complicated with multiple organ abscesses is an uncommon manifestation. Because of the low incidence of the disease, F-18 fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography with computed tomography (18F-FDG PET/CT) imaging studies for PAVMs complicated with multiple organ abscesses are scarce.Patient concerns:We report a case of a 54-year-old man presenting with PAVMs complicated with synchronous multiple organ abscesses founded by 18F-FDG PET/CT. 18F-FDG PET/CT revealed tortuous stripes and mass opacities with no significant FDG uptake in the left upper lung lobe. However, hypermetabolic lesions located in the anterior inferior segment of right hepatic lobe [with maximum standardized uptake value (SUVmax) of 10.7], and in the right basal ganglia with SUVmax of 14.1 were found by 18F-FDG PET/CT.Diagnoses:A diagnosis of synchronous liver and brain abscesses infected by rare Aerococcus viridans was determined by tissue culture.Interventions:Vancomycin was provided intravenously, and oral linezolidate tablets were prescribed for anti-inflammatory treatment for 1 month. Liver and head magnetic resonance imaging was performed during the follow-up.Outcomes:The lesion in the right basal ganglia was reduced, and the lesion in the right liver had disappeared, indicating the lesions were abscesses.Lessons:The present case indicated that the possibility of abscesses should be considered with patients with PAVMs, and whole-body 18F-FDG PET/CT is suggested to identify possible accompanying abscesses in multiple organs for PAVMs patients.

“…Dynamic magnetic resonance (MR) imaging using three-dimensional (3D) gradient-echo (GRE) with fat-suppression has become important in abdominal MR studies. Thin-segmented, multiphase, three-dimensional contrastenhanced dynamic MR sequences with fat suppression are potentially useful for imaging small abdominal vessels such as the IPAs (13). These are clinically relevant because, for example, they can be a source of bleeding resulting from trauma or can be the vessels supplying hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).…”

“…Fat suppression is essential for evaluating small IPAs because high signals from fat and chemical shift artifacts impair the visualization of these vessels. Fat suppression by increasing the contrast between enhanced vessels and lowsignal fat can improve the visualization of IPAs (13).…”

In order to keep subscribers up‐to‐date with the latest developments in their field, John Wiley & Sons are providing a current awareness service in each issue of the journal. The bibliography contains newly published material in the field of NMR in biomedicine. Each bibliography is divided into 9 sections: 1 Books, Reviews ' Symposia; 2 General; 3 Technology; 4 Brain and Nerves; 5 Neuropathology; 6 Cancer; 7 Cardiac, Vascular and Respiratory Systems; 8 Liver, Kidney and Other Organs; 9 Muscle and Orthopaedic. Within each section, articles are listed in alphabetical order with respect to author. If, in the preceding period, no publications are located relevant to any one of these headings, that section will be omitted.
