Aspectos radiológicos da malformação arteriovenosa uterina: Relato de caso de uma causa incomum e perigosa de sangramento vaginal anormal

Abstract

Uterine arteriovenous malformations may cause life-threatening abnormal genital bleeding in women at childbearing age. Transvaginal Doppler ultrasonography is a widely available, noninvasive and excellent diagnostic method. The authors report the case of a patient with history of gestational trophoblastic disease and multiple curettage procedures who developed uterine arteriovenous malformations, with remission of the lesions after treatment with methotrexate. © Colégio Brasileiro de Radiologia e Diagnóstico por Imagem.
