Abstract
Arteriovenous malformation (AVM) is a congenital disorder of the veins and arteries that makeup the vascular system. This report presents a case of AVM in the body and ramus region of left side of mandible in a 22-year-old male. The case presents with diffuse swelling present on left region of the body and ramus area of mandible since 8 months. Malformation was diagnosed with the help of detailed patient history, clinical evaluation, radiographs, and computed tomography (CT) scans. The definitive diagnosis was made by CT angiography. Later hemimandibulectomy with simultaneous reconstruction by a titanium plate was done.
