Abstract:
The treatment of intraosseous ateriovenous malformation in the jaw is difficult because of life threatening frequent bleeding tendency. The surgical resection of AVM may be mortal due to massive blood loss .In the growing pediatric patient, surgery may cause facial deformity and growth disturbance. So currently, the treatment of AVM is only embolization using various material through endovascular access, direct-puncture or embolization in conjunction with surgical resection. We report a case of combined techniques.
