Abstract:
Arteriovenous malformation (AVM) of the scrotum is a rare vascular lesion, which is distinguished histologically by ambiguous vessels displaying both arterial and venous characteristics and abnormal muscularization of variable sized ectatic vessels. Complete excision is recommended as a definitive treatment. Here, a case of arteriovenous malformation involving the scrotal vessels is reported.
