Peripheral arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) are rare vascular anomalies characterized by abnormal connections between arteries and veins that bypass the capillary system. This case report details a three-year-old female child who presented with an enlarging swelling on her knee's medial side. AVM was diagnosed using computed tomography (CT) angiography and surgically excised. The case highlights the importance of early detection and timely intervention of AVMs to prevent complications.
