Conservative treatment of arteriovenous malformations of the mandible.
A modified technique is reported on the treatment of arteriovenous malformations in the mandibular body. The technique consists of highly selected embolization and piecemeal removal of the lesion through burred holes made in the cortex. This way the mandible and the teeth may be saved in selected patients.
