“…Angiography used to be the gold standard for the diagnosis of AVM 6 but transvaginal ultrasound with colour Doppler imaging seems to have replaced angiography 7 . In this study, 1 of the 15 patients who had IEV, had a drop of more than 2 gm/dL of Haemoglobin.…”

The aim of this study was to ascertain the incidence of “increased endometrial vascularity” recorded in the ultrasound scan reports, in the context of RPOC and correlate this finding with the incidence of life threatening intra‐operative bleeding.Ultrasound scan reports sometimes mention the presence of increased endometrial / sub‐endometrial vascularity in the context of retained products of conception or secondary post partum haemorrhage. This raises the possibility of serious intra‐operative haemorrhage in the minds of the junior doctors because of the possibility of arterio‐venous malformation. This retrospective case series was designed to find the incidences of increased endometrial vascularity and severe intra‐operative haemorrhage in the patients with RPOC in the south eastern part of Melbourne population. The study found that the incidence of increased endometrial vascularity was 7.57% and none of these patients suffered severe intra‐operative haemorrhage. A literature survey revealed that there were few studies on this topic.

“…A forma congênita é extremamente rara e resulta de um defeito na diferenciação vascular embrionária ou do desenvolvimento prematuro de um plexo capilar, levando a múltiplas conexões anormais entre artérias e veias . Entretanto, as MAV são adquiridas após lesão do tecido uterino e resultam de doença trofoblástica, trauma pélvi-co, abortamento, dilatação e curetagem, cesárea, endometriose, infecção uterina, neoplasia cervical ou endometrial e exposição ao dietiletilbestrol (1,(5)(6)(7)(8)(9)(10)(11) . A grande incidência de fístula arteriovenosa uterina tem sido relatada após surgimento quimioterápico de doença trofoblástica (3,10,12-15) .…”

“…O exame ultra-sonográfico com o Doppler colorido é mais específico no diagnóstico da MAV, notando-se vasos calibrosos com fluxo reverso. A análise espectral destas lesões mostra fluxo de baixa resistência e alta velocidade (1,17) . A ultra-sonografia com Doppler colorido tem sido útil na diferenciação da hidrossalpinge e outras entidades, em relação às varizes pélvicas.…”

As malformações arteriovenosas do útero são entidades raras. Sua forma de apresentação clínica é muito diversa, devendo o ginecologista e o imaginologista estar atentos para esta possibilidade diagnóstica, para estabelecer o tratamento de forma precisa e rápida. O presente artigo visa mostrar um caso de malformação arteriovenosa uterina adquirida após doença trofoblástica gestacional, cujo diagnóstico foi bem estabelecido por meio da ultra-sonografia com Doppler colorido e correlação com angiorressonância magnética.

“…Pseudoaneurysms can also be seen in isolation or in combination with acquired AVMs. 64 Acquired AVMs tend to develop after uterine trauma, when there is the potential for formation of abnormal vascular communications between artery and vein during the healing process, as in the case of a pregnancy.…”

Vaginal bleeding is the most common cause of presentation to the emergency department in the first trimester. Approximately half of patients with first trimester vaginal bleeding will lose the pregnancy. Clinical assessment is difficult, and sonography is necessary to determine if a normal fetus is present and alive and to exclude other causes of bleeding (eg, ectopic or molar pregnancy). Diagnosis of a normal intrauterine pregnancy not only helps the physician in terms of management but also gives psychologic relief to the patient. Improved ultrasound technology and high-frequency endovaginal transducers have enabled early diagnosis of abnormal and ectopic pregnancies, decreasing maternal morbidity and mortality. The main differential considerations of first trimester bleeding are spontaneous abortion, ectopic pregnancy, or gestational trophoblastic disease. This article reviews the causes of first trimester bleeding and the sonographic findings, including normal features of first trimester pregnancy.
