Transcatheter occlusion of large pulmonary arteriovenous malformations using multiple devices in a neonate

Pulmonary arteriovenous malformations (PAVMs) are usually well‐tolerated hemodynamically. Rarely, they cause severe neonatal cyanosis, requiring urgent treatment. We report the use of multiple transcatheter vascular occlusion devices to reduce right‐to‐left shunting in a neonate with multiple, large...
