Treatment of uterine arteriovenous malformation by myometrial lesion resection combined with artery occlusion under laparoscopy: a case report and literature review

Arteriovenous Malformation in a Bicornuate Uterus Associated with Dilatation and Curettage: Case Report

“…14 Failed embolization, high recurrence rates up to 16.7%, repetitive embolization rates up to 21.4%, postembolization syndrome, decreased rates of successful pregnancy, increased pregnancy complications such as spontaneous abortions, intrauterine growth restriction, postpartum uterine atony and postpartum hemorrhage due to poor vascularization and improper placental implantation because of uterine contractions may be observed in patients treated with UAE. 5,12,13 In the present case, uterine tamponade with a 16 French Foley balloon, under ultrasonography guidance, was performed. Intermittent heavy bleeding dramatically stopped.…”

“…cases, spontaneous resolution of vascular lesions during follow-up has been reported. 5 Here, a case of AVM located in one of the cavities of a bicornuate uterus, associated with D&C and treated with intrauterine balloon replacement is presented.…”

A Fertility-Preserving Laparoscopic Management Combined With Hysteroscopy of Uterine Arteriovenous Malformation Followed by Uterine Arteries Embolization: A Case Report

“…In this case, surgical intervention is adopted given the high risks of ovarian insufficiency and potential placental abnormalities during subsequent pregnancies which are associated with the UAE. A few cases are also reported using the laparoscopic vascular ligation (1,16,17). Both Hoffman et al (1) and Chen et al (16) reported the resection of the uterine AVM lesion combined with vascular ligation, which reached the successful management of the disease.…”

“…A few cases are also reported using the laparoscopic vascular ligation (1,16,17). Both Hoffman et al (1) and Chen et al (16) reported the resection of the uterine AVM lesion combined with vascular ligation, which reached the successful management of the disease. However, the remission was reported (9,18) and lesion retention was considered based on the possibility of spontaneous AVMs remission.…”

Management of Intrauterine Arteriovenous Malformation (AVM) in 14 Patients by Sonographically Guided Tisseel Application

“…In addition, measurement of β-HCG is important for differentiating vascular malformation from trophoblastic disease or neoplasia. These methods for the diagnosis of AVM may provide some guidance for choosing the appropriate treatment for AVM [19]. Management depends on hemodynamic stability and the amount of bleeding as well as on the patient's age and her desire to preserve fertility.…”
