Arteriovenous malformation of the mandible are a rare and potentially life threatening entity. Exsanguination from these lesions is a well documented event. Management of these lesions is unfortunately unclear and unstandardized due to their rare occurrence. Their presentation is wide and varied ranging from complaints of a loose tooth to acute hemorrhage and shock. Currently a multidisciplinary approach that typically involves input from oral maxillofacial surgeons (OMFS), otolaryngologists, and endovascular neurointerventionalists is required to manage these lesions. Often these lesions require both endovascular intervention and surgical resection. Due to the lesions high rate of recurrence and proximity to vital structures, …
