title: Arteriovenous malformation in the temporalis muscle.
abstract: An 18-year-old man presented with an arteriovenous malformation (AVM) in the temporalis muscle. It was shown by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and confirmed by intra-arterial angiography. The lesion was completely resected and the defect reconstructed with titanium mesh and cancellous bone.
