Abstract

Neonatal cases of systemic artery to portal venous system arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) can present unique challenges in terms of diagnosis, management, and treatment. Prompt identification of these AVMs is necessary for minimizing long-term sequelae and optimizing prognosis. Our report describes the diagnosis and successful endovascular coil embolization of a congenital right internal mammary artery (IMA) to portal vein AVM in a young infant initially presenting during routine fetal screening with an incidentally discovered congenital thoracic vascular abnormality.
