title: Congenital pelvic arteriovenous malformation: two cases and MR findings.
abstract: Congenital pelvic arteriovenous malformation (PAVM) is rare. We present two cases with emphasis on the imaging features. Magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) demonstrates comparable details of the vascular abnormalities as conventional angiography, which should be reserved for pre-embolization evaluation.
