Pulmonary arteriovenous malformations. Indian Journal of Pediatrics. 2001 Sep; 68(9): 891-4http://imsear.searo.who.int/handle/123456789/84656Pulmonary arteriovenous malformations rarely present in childhood. Two cases are presented in this report. Both the cases presented clinically with cyanosis and clubbing without a cardiac murmur. The second case had cerebral abscess in addition. Both the cases underwent a contrast-enhanced echocardiography which suggested the presence of pulmonary arteriovenous malformations. The first case also underwent 99mTc radionuclide scan and pulmonary angiography. The cases are being reported for their characteristic clinical features and for emphasizing the role of non-invasive modalities like contrast-enhanced echocardiography and radionuclide scan in reaching the diagnosis.engAngiographyArteriovenous Malformations --diagnosisChildChild, PreschoolEchocardiographyFemaleHumansPulmonary Artery --abnormalitiesPulmonary Veins --abnormalitiesPulmonary arteriovenous malformations.Case Reports
