Arteriovenous Malformation of the Face Involving the Right Temporal Region: a Case Report and Literature Review

Arteriovenous malformation (AVM) of the face is an uncommon condition. Clinical manifestations typically include local pain, pulsatile mass, headache, and less frequently, necrosis and hemorrhage. This study discusses and illustrates an unusual case of progressively progressive AVM of the right temporal region of the face in a 33-year-old woman. The diagnosis of vascular malformation was evoked on angio-CT. The treatment was surgical and consisted of complete removal of the tumor after vascular ligation. Histology confirmed the diagnosis.
