Management of scrotal arteriovenous malformation with transcatheter embolisation coils and percutaneous sclerotherapy under angiographic guidance

Wing Lung Alvin So et al. J Med Imaging Radiat Oncol. 2015 Aug.

Abstract

Arteriovenous malformations of the scrotum are infrequent and are usually treated by a combination of endovascular embolisation and surgery. We present a case of scrotal arteriovenous malformation treated effectively by a combination of endovascular and direct percutaneous techniques.

Keywords: angiographic embolisation; arteriovenous malformation; direct sclerotherapy; scrotum; ultrasound.
