Abstract 

We report a case of a 35-year-old man who presented with a giant congenital craniofacial arteriovenous malformation. The angiogram showed an arteriovenous malformation in the left temporo fronto orbital region. Excision of the arteriovenous malformation was performed with fronto temporal approach. Postoperatively, the patient is completely asymptomatic.
