A systematic approach to management of high-flow vascular malformations of the mandible.
High-flow vascular malformations of the mandible are associated with significant morbidity and mortality. As these lesions are rare, the experience that a clinician has with treatment may be limited. To facilitate understanding and treatment of such lesions in a controlled and efficient manner, a treatment protocol is presented that includes careful preoperative planning, embolization, and surgery.
