Abstract.
Vaginal arteriovenous malformations (AVMs), although rare, can lead to life-threatening complications. We report the first case of a vaginal AVM whose diagnosis and follow-up were performed by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). MRI findings of the AVM are the blood flow-related features within the tumor, such as the phase-shift artifact, paradoxical enhancement, and flow voids.
