“…Embolization by polyvinyl alcohol particles, gel foam, coils, methyl methacrylate, and silicone spheres reduces the hypervascularity, therefore aids in surgical resection [18]. The modalities described above have significant drawbacks.Excessive fibrosis, scarring, bleeding, and aesthetic concerns are all factors to consider [19,20]. Surgical resection remains the gold standard treatment for AVMs in children [21], in this case we have performed surgical resection to prevent any adverse effects.…”

10.30699/jambs.30.142. 458 Arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) of the head and neck are rare vascular benign anomalies but may become lethal when persistent and progressive. It occurs when a fetal capillary bed fails to fully involute, allowing direct connection between arteries and veins. They can also happen as a result of trauma or a hormonal changes.Clinically along with swelling, they are associated with signs of warmth, palpable thrill or bruit. Management of the lesion is challenging and follows a multimodal laser therapy approach followed by embolization and surgical resection. Complete excision is required as incomplete excision leads to recurrence. A detailed clinical background combined with imaging generally clearly delineates the lesion and allows for a careful therapeutic option. A case report of a post-traumatic/acquired AVM on the upper lip is presented in this report which was diagnosed on contrast tomography Angiogram and MRI in a 7year old female and treated with intralesional corticosteroids followed by surgical excision.

Arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) are uncommon vascular lesions. AVMs are the most serious type of vascular malformations, causing substantial deformity and functional disability. AVMs of the acquired type are rarely confronted in the head and neck region. They may present as a medical emergency while performing dental procedures due to their potential for uncontrollable haemorrhage. Dental professionals should be aware of their potentially fatal complications and management. Accurate diagnosis of AVMs is critical and their management remains challenging. Vascular anomalies involving the lips can negatively impact the functionality and facial appearance. In this article, we discuss a very rare case of acquired AVM of the lower lip triggered by hormonal variation occurring during menopause in a female patient, 58 years of age. There are no reported cases of acquired AVM of the lip with hormonal variation occurring during menopause as the trigger for proliferation of the lesion. An overview of the clinical, etiological, diagnostic and management aspects of head and neck region-acquired AVMs is also presented in this paper.
