Multidisciplinary Approach to Lethal Bleeding From an Arteriovenous Malformation in the External Auditory Canal

초록

Arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) are composed of abnormally connecting feeding arteries as well as draining veins and lack a regulatory system. Frequent recurrences and unpredictable behavior are their main problems. Potential mortality and morbidity associated with therapeutic procedures must be considered with these patients. Improper treatment often aggravates the condition, potentially rendering therapy more complex. A multidisciplinary approach, including an endovascular approach, surgical excision, and flap reconstruction, is considered to completely eradicate an AVM. This study introduces a complicated case of AVM with massive bleeding through the external auditory canal that was treated with a multidisciplinary approach.
