Abstract
Objective: To describe a surgical technique in the treatment of arteriovenous malformations of the mandible
 Methods:
 Design: Case Report
 Setting: Tertiary National University Hospital
 Participants: One
 Result: 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.
 Conclusion: 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.
 Keywords: arteriovenous malformation; mandible, abnormalities; extracorporeal curettage
