Endovascular management of a bleeding mandibular arteriovenous malformation by transfemoral venous embolization with NBCA

AJNR Am J Neuroradiol. 2001 Feb;22(2):359-62.

Abstract

A 13-year-old boy presented with an arteriovenous malformation (AVM) involving the left mandible that bled after intraoral biopsy. The AVM was treated on an emergency basis by primary intravenous delivery of n-butyl cyanoacrylate after transfemoral catheterization, resulting in complete anatomic and clinical cure.
