Internal Mammary Arteriovenous Fistula Treated with Transcatheter Embolization

Internal Mammary Arteriovenous Fistula Treated with Transcatheter Embolization

We report an adult case of internal mammary arteriovenous fistula which was found to have a continuous murmur. The fistula was clearly demonstrated by multi-detector row computed tomography and selective digital subtraction angiography, and was successfully occluded by transcatheter embolization.
