Superficical arteiovenous malformation (AVM) in the lower extremities is not a rare disease, but can be difficult to treat if the condition is complicated by intractable skin ulcer. Arterial embolization using Super Absorbent Polymer Microspheres (SAP-Microspheres) was performed in one patient with AVM accompanied with intractable skin ulcer. As an embolic agent, 2 mg of SAP-Microspheres having particle sizes in the range of 0.25 mm to 0.30 mm were employed. Healing of the ulcer was achieved 10 weeks after embolization. The SAP-Microspheres, considered as one of the permanent embolic agents,have been employed with very favorable results as being described in this case report.
