ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To introduce the technique of transarterial interventional embolization treating for arteriovenous malformations (AVM) in the face.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>From April 1998, 17 patients have been treated with this method. Seldinger's maneuver was used in this series. Of them, 11 cases received only interventional embolization; 6 cases received both interventional embolization and surgical resection.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The interventional embolization was effective in all the 17 cases, which was confirmed by immediate angiography. Their clinical symptoms were gradually relieved. Interventional embolization obviously decreased hemorrhage during surgical resection.</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>Interventional embolization provides a new way for the treatment of AVM. Preoperative embolization can lower the surgical risk as it obviously decreases hemorrhage during the surgical procedure.</p>
