Overview

Case report demonstrates successful embolization of pulmonary arteriovenous malformations in a patient with hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia, indicating safety of targeted anesthetic strategies.

Key Points

  • This case report aims to detail anesthetic considerations for a patient with hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia undergoing pulmonary arteriovenous malformation embolization.
  • Embolization performed under general anesthesia with tailored ventilatory management and lung isolation capability.
  • Patient presentation included recurrent epistaxis, prior cerebral AVM, exertional dyspnea, and hypoxemia.
  • Embolization completed without complications, leading to resolution of symptoms.
  • Oxygenation levels normalized post-procedure.
