Plast Reconstr Surg. 2000 Jun;105(7):2433-9. doi: 10.1097/00006534-200006000-00020.

Abstract

Management of complex and relentless large arteriovenous malformations with long term control and acceptable aesthetic results can be accomplished. This outcome requires selective intra-arterial embolization, judicious surgical resection, composite reconstruction with free tissue transfer, other ancillary procedures, or both, and careful serial follow-up examinations to rule out recurrent or persistent disease.
