A 14-year-old female with occasional nosebleeds and a PMH significant for HHT (diagnosed clinically and confirmed via genetic testing) underwent chest CT, which found multiple PAVMs. Here, Dr. Jeffrey Pollak performs endovascular embolization  of these PAVMs in our first interventional radiology case.
