AB Pulmonary  Arteriovenous  Malformation  (PAVM)  is  a  direct  communication  between  branches  of  the  pulmonary  arterial  and  venous  vessels  representing  right-to-left  shunting  and  therefore  not  participating  in  pulmonary  gas  exchange.  Usually  congenital  (70%  are  associated  with  ☞Hereditary  Telangiectasia),  less  commonly  acquired  (hepatic  cirrhosis,  mitral  stenosis,  trauma,  actinomycosis,  Fanconi  Syndrome).
