Abstract
Hepatic resection is the treatment of choice for localized intrahepatic arteriovenous malformation. Theoretically, embolization could be curative or reduce the size of a malformation, making consequent hepatic resection feasible. Results do not support this theory because of the high rate of complications recorded that brought in every case, ours included, to the death of the child.
