Multidisciplinary approach to congenital multiple arterio-porto-caval malformation: case report.
A case of intrahepatic arteriovenous malformation connected with umbilical, hepatic, portal, and arterial systems in a fetus diagnosed at 36 weeks of gestation is presented. Prenatal color Doppler ultrasonography in the fetal liver demonstrated complicated vascular connections fed by arterial and portal branches. Postnatal color Doppler, power Doppler, 3D power Doppler, abdominal multidetector computed tomography (MDCT), and angiography CT verified the prenatal diagnoses. Extended right hepatectomy was performed successfully on postnatal day 19.
