  • Title: Mandibular arteriovenous malformation diagnosed by MR and MRA: a case report.
    Author: Yeung KW, Liu GC, Chou MS, Wu DK, Sheu RS, Hong JM, Chen HR.
    Journal: Gaoxiong Yi Xue Ke Xue Za Zhi; 1995 Apr; 11(4):233-8. PubMed ID: 7602659.
    Abstract:
    A case of mandibular arteriovenous malformation (AVM) is presented. Prompt diagnosis and appropriate management are essential due to massive bleeding or even death after dental extraction or biopsy. Angiography remains the gold standard in detecting the lesion. Magnetic resonance (MR) imaging with spin-echo sequences reveals the vascular malformation as signal-void. MR angiography can demonstrate the nidus, dilated artery and vein. MR imaging and MR angiography can supplement angiography in the diagnosis of mandibular AVM.
