Extracranial arteriovenous malformation diagnosed on color Doppler imaging.
Arteriovenous (AV) malformations are rare and may occur at various locations, like in the brain, liver, lungs, or in the subcutaneous tissue. This case report describes an AV malformation from the right occipital artery. The value of combined B-mode ultrasonography and color Doppler mode imaging of masses in the neck region is discussed.
