Case study reveals a complex vulvar arteriovenous malformation causing significant bleeding in a patient, highlighting management challenges.
Vascular malformations are rarely located in the female lower genital tract. Vulvar arteriovenous malformation is rare and complex to manage because they are associated with varied presentation and their association with numerous complications like ulceration, bleeding, vulvar distortion etc. Presenting a very rare case of vulvar arteriovenous malformation in a 36 years young female patient who presented in emergency as post coital bleeding, had hemorrhagic hypovolemic shock, suspected on ultrasound, operated, needed intensive care management and histopathology of vulva clinched the diagnosis of such a rare case with rare presentation.
