@#<p><strong>OBJECTIVE:
</strong> To describe a surgical technique in the treatment of arteriovenous malformations of the mandible</p><p><strong>METHODS:
</strong></p><p> <strong>Design:
</strong> Case Report</p><p><strong>Setting:
</strong> Tertiary National University Hospital</p><p> <strong>Participant</strong> One</p><p><strong>RESULT:
</strong> A 16-year-old boy underwent resection, extracorporeal curettage, and immediate replantation of the hemimandible for intraosseous arteriovenous malformation. Postoperative follow up and imaging at one- and six-months showed no signs of recurrence, new bone formation and consolidation of the replanted right mandible with good symmetry and function.</p><p><strong>CONCLUSION:
</strong> Extracorporeal curettage followed by immediate replantation of the resected mandible seems to have yielded good early results in our case and may be a viable alternative especially when access to highly specialized microvascular surgical services is limited.</p><p> </p>
