ABSTRACT
Arteriovenous malformation (AVM) is defined as a congenital vascular anomaly that shunts blood from arteries to veins with no capillary perfusion. In some rare hereditary diseases, including capillary malformation-arteriovenous malformation (CM-AVM), hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia (HHT), PTEN hamartoma-tumor syndrome (PHTS), AVM is generally considered the characteristic clinic presentation. This review primarily focused on the mechanisms of genetic regulation during embryonic vasculature development, genetic mutations in TGF-beta signaling pathway of HHT, PTEN mutations in PHTS and genetic screening of CM-AVM. In addition, current findings in somatic mutations of extracranial AVM were discussed as well. This review aimed to provide insight into the etiology to help the diagnosis and treatment of extracranial AVM in clinic.
