Arteriovenous malformation of uterus is a rare disease in gynecology, and it's etiology, diagnosis, classification is not definitely established. We have experienced a patient, 22-year-old woman with a uterine arteriovenous malformation presenting with vaginal bleeding, no other symptom.

We report a case of uterine arteriovenous malformation with a brief review of the literatures.
