Peripheral arteriovenous malformation - what does this mean

Peripheral arteriovenous malformation (pavm) is a rare vascular disorder that occurs when an abnormal connection forms between an artery and a vein, allowing blood to bypass the capillary bed and flow directly from the artery to the vein. this can lead to an increased pressure in the veins, which in turn can cause swelling, pain, and a variety of other symptoms.

What happens during the disease - peripheral arteriovenous malformation

Peripheral arteriovenous malformation is caused by an abnormal connection between the arteries and veins in the peripheral vascular system. this can lead to increased blood flow and pressure in the veins, which can cause damage to the surrounding tissues and organs. it can also cause decreased oxygen delivery to the tissues, leading to tissue death and impaired function.
