A 51-year-old woman with a history of IgA nephropathy was found to have a mass in the right lobe of the liver by abdominal ultrasound. The PET/CT scan revealed elevated 68 Ga-FAPI-04 uptake in the aforementioned lesion, indicating the potential presence of liver cancer. However, subsequent histopathological analysis confirmed it to be an arteriovenous malformation. This case illustrates that 68 Ga-FAPI-04 uptake can occur in arteriovenous malformation and is a benign cause of 68 Ga-FAPI-04 uptake.

Endovascular intervention is a safe, effective treatment modality in the management of diverse pulmonary vascular pathologies, including acute or chronic thromboembolic disease, pulmonary arteriovenous malformations (pAVMs), pulmonary artery or bronchial artery hemorrhage, and foreign body retrieval. This article reviews indications, contraindications, techniques, and outcomes in endovascular management of common pulmonary vascular pathologies, with the goal of improving operator familiarity and facility with these procedures.

Spinal dural arteriovenous fistulas (sDAVFs) are rather uncommon lesions of the spine. In sDAVFs, which represent the most frequent form of vascular malformations of the spine, operative treatment remains the most common treatment modality. In operative surgery, visualization and pathology detection have a key impact on the results of the neurosurgical treatment of an sDAVF.

Arteriovenous Malformations (AVM) can present themselves in an ample clinical spectrum. They worsen over time, creating local complications such as ulceration, destruction, infection, pain, and severe bleeding. Small focal AVMs can effectively be cured by surgery and/or endovascular techniques, whereas larger ones are of difficult management.
