Reperfusion of Pulmonary Arteriovenous Malformations Treated by Catheter Embolization.

Clinic of Diagnostic and Interventional Radiology, Saarland University Medical Center, 66421 Homburg, Germany.
The aim of this study was to evaluate patients with hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia (HHT) for the potential reperfusion of pulmonary arteriovenous malformations (PAVM) treated by catheter embolization using coils or embolization plugs and to analyze causes of possible reperfusion in order to further improve treatment. This retrospective study analyzed the data of 345 patients who underwent screening for pulmonary arteriovenous malformations in cases of suspected or confirmed HHT (Osler's disease). Of these, 118 patients with PAVM that underwent catheter embolization and had at least one follow-up study were included in our study and evaluated for potential reperfusion.

Therapeutic strategies for early-stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) are advancing, with immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) and targeted therapies making their way into neoadjuvant and adjuvant settings. With recent advances, there was a need for multidisciplinary lung cancer healthcare providers from across Ontario to convene and review recent data from practical and implementation standpoints. The focus was on the following questions: (1) To what extent do patient (e.

Hereditary Hemorrhagic Telangiectasia (HHT) is an autosomal vascular dysplasia characterized by the presence of mucocutaneous telangiectasia and arteriovenous malformations in solid organs. The Curaçao criteria and/or detection of ALK1, ENG, and SMAD4 gene mutations are used for diagnosis. Juvenile Polyposis Syndrome (JPS) is diagnosed according to the number and localization of juvenile polyps, and family history of JPS.

Article Synopsis
- Lung cancer is the top cause of cancer deaths in Canada, with non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) being the most common type.
- Timely molecular profiling using tissue biopsies is crucial for choosing effective targeted therapies, but challenges often lead to delays in testing and treatment.
- A multidisciplinary team in Ontario has proposed criteria for reimbursing liquid biopsies, which analyze tumor DNA in blood and could provide a quicker, less invasive alternative to tissue biopsies, aiming to improve treatment access and outcomes.
