A 30-year-old woman was referred to our department for multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) with a complaint of dyspnea. Her chest radiography findings were unremarkable. Wide area detector CT Angiography and contrast-enhanced CT scan revealed an enhancing cluster of tubular structures in the inferior lingular segment of the left upper lobe [1, 2]. Coronal maximum intensity projection (MIP) (Figure A) and three-dimensional volume-rendered CT images (Figures B, C) revealed a Pulmonary Arteriovenous Malformation PAVM with a feeding artery, an aneurysmal part, and a draining vein.
