Transient ischemic attack induced by pulmonary arteriovenous fistula：a case report

Cerebral ischemic stroke is attributed to paradoxical cerebral embolism (PCE). pulmonary arteriovenous fistula (PAVF) is a potential rare cause of cerebral ischemic stroke. Transient ischemic attack (TIA) induced by PAVF in children is rare, lacking typical clinical manifestations, which can not be ignored.
