Arteriovenous Malformation of the Oral Cavity: A Case Report and Review of Literature
Journal Title: Journal of Pharmaceutical and Biomedical Sciences - Year 2016, Vol 6, Issue 9
Abstract
Arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) are developmental vascular anomalies that occur when the embryonic vascular network fails to differentiate. It is composed of abnormal communications between arteries and veins without a normal intervening capillarybed. Lymphatic, capillary, venous and AV malformations make up a majority of vascular malformations. Facial vascular malformations can cause dental emergencies that result in fatal or life threatening and disfiguring situations. Diagnosis of these lesions is essential and management of maxillofacial AVMs remains challenging. In this article, we report a case of intra-oral AV malformation of 16-year-old male patient that was treated with sclerotherapy using 1% sodium tetradecyl sulfate as sclerosant. The treatment was effective, within a short period of time after injection and no recurrence was observed one year postoperatively
