Innovative Treatment of Scalp Arteriovenous Malformation

Devesha Rathour, Aborishi Garg

Abstract: Arteriovenous malformations of the scalp are a group of rare conditions which may present as large, tortuous vascular lesions resulting in craniofacial deformity, bleeding after minor trauma. Radiological findings can be the presence of feeding arteries and veins associated with dilated tortuous vessels. Surgical excision is considered as definitive treatment for these lesions but intraoperative bleeding can be a challenge .hence various endovascular procedures are gaining popularity. We hereby describe a case of a 26 year male with arteriovenous malformation in the left parietal region of scalp.
