“…According to our study, the use of gelfoam pledgets without the complementary use of any other embolic material seems effective in the resolution of acquired uterine AVMs. In addition, a three- to five-week duration of occlusion after bilateral UAE using gelfoam pledgets seemed sufficient to prevent further bleeding while still permitting the slow development of various collateral vasculature, thereby preventing ischemia 6,13,14,29,30. Menstrual cycles were restored within two months in all patients with clinically successful outcome.…”

“…In a recent study, even after embolization of bilateral uterine arteries for the treatment of uterine leiomyoma, women are able to achieve pregnancies and most resulted in term deliveries and appropriately grown newborns (3) . To date, there are 11 reports regarding successful pregnancy following embolization of uterine AVM have been published (4–14) . These results further support the utilization of this treatment option to the patients with uterine AVMs who desire future fertility.…”
