Arteriovenous malformations (AVM) are rare congenital anomalies. It occurs when there is a direct connection between the artery and vein without a capillary structure. If left untreated, it can cause symptoms leading to heart failure. In this case report, a 10-year-old male patient with congenital AVM in the left upper extremity was presented. He had palpitation and dyspnea for the last three months. The wide shunt between the radial artery and the deep vein was treated by primary closure through the deep vein. Endovascular or surgical treatment methods are available for AVM treatment. In this study, it was aimed to contribute to what should be considered when choosing treatment method.
