SUMMARY: Vascular malformations are lesions attributed to developmental vessel anomalies, an area type of vas- cular anomalies, and they are not common entities. Cranio- maxillofacial region is the most common site of their ap- pearance, and they can cause morphogenetic anomalies. Proper diagnosis and management of each case is pa- tient-specific, and includes a detailed medical history, as well as examination with certain imaging testing. Surgical management may become complicated, and a high per- centage of failure or relapse may occur. The aim of the present paper is to present a case of arteriovenous malformation of the lower lip in a 68-year-old male patient, who was treated with a combination of preoperative embolization and surgical excision of the lesion, with ad- equate functional and aesthetic outcome.
KEY WORDS: Arteriovenous malformation, arterial em- bolization, surgical excision
