AB  - Arteriovenous malformations (AVM) are vascular malformations, broadband, formed of arterial and venous dysmorphic vessels interconnected directly without transition in a capillary bed. Arteriovenous malformation surgery is particularly demanding owing to the need to control bleeding. This is probably one of the most critical moments of arteriovenous malformation surgery. The purpose of this study is to analyzed the clinical aspects and evaluate the results of surgery in the treatment of these AVMs. This is a retrospective and descriptive study that took place in Dakar over a period from January 2004 to December 2017 on patients operated for arteriovenous malformations.
