Spontaneous Regression of Parapharyngeal Arteriovenous Malformation

Wen-Kai Tseng et al. Vasc Endovascular Surg. 2018 May.

Abstract

Arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) are fast-flow vascular malformations that mostly occur in the head and neck region. They are typically progressive and their spontaneous regression is almost never seen. We present a case with pulsatile tinnitus and a parapharyngeal AVM. It resolved completely after diagnostic catheter-based angiography alone.

Keywords: arteriovenous malformation; head and neck; spontaneous regression; vascular malformation.
