Title: Arteriovenous malformation of the maxillary sinus and mandible: a case report. Author: Cansiz H, Yener M, Kalekoglu N, Dalkiliç O. Journal: Ear Nose Throat J; 2003 Aug; 82(8):608-10, 612, 614.

Embolization alone and in combination with surgical resection has been the mainstay of treatment. We report the case of a prepubertal girl who experienced two recurrences of arteriovenous malformation, one in the maxillary sinus and the other in the mandible. To our knowledge, this is the first report in the literature of recurrences arising in these two locations.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
