In arteriovenous malformation (AVM) consisting of multiple arterioles that shunt into a dominant draining vein, such as Cho Type II/Yakes Type III, occluding the vein can achieve a complete cure (1). However, tortuous vasculature can make catheterization to the embolization target difficult. The authors report that rectal inflation using a balloon device straightened the tortuous draining vein and overcame this hurdle in the embolization of rectal AVM.
