They may lead to a wide array of clinical effects from cosmetic disfigurement and recurrent life threatening haemorrhage to cardiac failure. Treatment of these lesions pose a challenge to reconstructive surgeons due to their extreme vascularity, high incidence of recurrence and involvement of adjacent vascular channels. The case presented here is a congenital A-V malformation treated successfully by thorough surgical excision and reconstruction by a well vascularised flap.https://www.nepjol.info/index.php/AJMS/article/view/13121a-v malformationmr angiographyhemangiomanosescalping forehead flap
