Uterine arteriovenous malformation

Discussion:

The patient came to the hospital with vaginal bleeding one week after dilation and curettage was done for retained products of conception.

Uterine arteriovenous malformation is a rare condition that is described as fistulous communication of arteries and veins within the myometrium of the uterus rather than going through capillaries.

This connection of vessels will cause enlarged, tortuous vascular structures with turbulent flow.

Pelvic ultrasound with color Doppler is the most used modality for studying suspected patients.
