Surgical management of a deep arteriovenous malformation in the foot: Case report

Abstract

Arteriovenous malformation (A-V malformations) are rare malformations that occur in the vascular system. They are often asymptomatic and difficult to diagnose clinically when they are deep. Symptoms usually occur following injury. This case discusses a 28-year-old female who presented with a A-V malformation following a history of stress fracture and the surgical treatment of the condition.
