“…The first group comprises lymphatic malformations and VMs while the second group involves AVMs [8]. AVMs are the most violent type of VMs, which can lead to severe deformation and loss of functionality [9]. So we have specifically diagnosed using color doppler application.…”

“…The AVMs present a therapeutic challenge because of their hemodynamic characteristics and their growth modality [1]. They have to be treated according to their histopathology, location, and hemodynamic features as shown radiographically with angiography [8][9]. So we recommend to obtain angiography to find out the feeding vessel in this case before surgical interventions.…”

Vascular malformation (VM) consists of a group of tumors that emerge from vascular origin caused by vascular angiovascular or lymphoproliferation. Arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) contribute high-flow, creating direct vein artery contact without regular capillary network. AVMs are present at birth or in congenital. Acquired AVMs occur later in life due to hormonal changes or trauma, and acquired AVMs in oral cavity are very rare. AVMs are persistent and progressive in nature when present, can represent a lethal, causing significant blood loss, and an incomplete resection frequently leads to a recurrence of the lesion. We present a rare case of a congenital AVM diagnosed on retinue dental checkup using color doppler ultrasonography (USG) in a 62-year-old man from South India.

“…2 These malformations persist or progress with time and are usually triggered by hormonal changes or trauma. 3,4 Management options include embolization, electro thrombosis, surgical resection, or a combination of 2 of these methods. Complete surgical excision is often not achievable due to AVMs’ diffusive nature, which involves different tissues, and their location in crucial anatomical areas.…”

Summary: Arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) are rare lesions formed by direct connection of arteries and veins bypassing capillary beds. AVM locations can vary; however, extracranial AVMs remain the least common. The vast majority of these malformations are congenital and can be triggered by hormonal changes. A 49-year-old woman presented with a progressive right-sided upper eyelid swelling over the past 12 years. The patient had mechanical ptosis and mild impairment of the right visual field. The swelling was compressible with a thrill, and bruits were heard. The patient was diagnosed with AVM using cerebral angiography. Preoperative endovascular embolization was not possible; however, surgical excision was successfully done with no complications. AVMs and fistulas are high-flow vascular lesions that usually occur during childhood and progress with time. Only a few cases of face and eyelid AVMs have been reported in the literature. Diagnosis of these anomalies is mostly made based on clinical presentation and radiographic imaging such as angiography. Treatment options remain controversial, and management should be individualized for each patient. Endovascular embolization followed by surgical excision is advisable in many cases. Due to its rare entity, information regarding the best management options for AVMs is limited. Reducing the risk of bleeding and achieving total resection is the goal of treatment. Long-term follow-up is required in these patients because recurrent cases of AVMs have been reported.

Arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) are congenital vascular anomalies resulting from defects in angiogenesis. Approximately 40% of AVMs go undetected after birth and only experience the delayed clinical onset of symptoms in adulthood. AVMs are rare, representing only 1.5% of all vascular anomalies. The most common sites for the aberrant vascular nidus are the oral cavity and maxillofacial region, which represent 50% of the cases. AVMs are the most challenging and life-threatening form of vascular malformation. Exsanguination, thrombus detachment and embolization are the most hazardous operative risks. Small case series revealed a 75% recurrence rate during a 5-year follow-up, which adds another layer of complexity to their management. Large lesions in the head and neck cause deformation to the patient and present a challenge to the surgeon during their excision among vital structures and reconstruction of the 3D complex defects.
