Abstract

Uterine arteriovenous malformations are rare and their true prevalence is unknown. Selective arterial embolization is used as first-line therapy for acute severe vaginal hemorrhage associated with uterine arteriovenous malformations. However, some patients with no vaginal bleeding have been treated conservatively, so the optimal treatment modality for arteriovenous malformations is unclear. We describe a 58-year-old woman with uterine arteriovenous malformation and an ovarian artery aneurysm who was successfully treated with an expectant management approach along with an assessment of age, symptoms, and imaging findings.
