Diagnostic Yield of Rescreening Adults for Pulmonary Arteriovenous Malformations

ConclusionsThere is a definite but low rate of newly detected PAVMs in HHT patients with initial negative screening studies. No new treatable PAVMs were identified at the 5-year mark, although 1 treatable case was identified after 6 years. These findings suggest that a longer screening interval may be warranted.
