Live Case Demonstration on Pulmonary Arteriovenous Malformations and HHT held in HVC Interventional Radiology Lab at Yale
Two patients with HHT and pulmonary AVMs were treated in an HVC interventional radiology lab. Using a variety of catheters threaded through the patients’ femoral veins, the AVMs were embolized by means of platinum coils or plugs. These therapeutic fluoroscopic procedures were part of a teleconference for the four-day Cardiac Symposium.
The audience was able to view live demonstrations from Saudi Arabia, Brazil, Germany, Montreal, Canada, Miami, Florida, St. Louis, Missouri, Boston, and Yale.
