Case Presentation: Uterine arteriosus malformation is rare case with potential life threatening vaginal bleeding. Although only few cases reported internationally literature, the real incidence uterine AVM could be higher. A patient was diagnosed with uterine AVM in Fatmawati Hospital with chief complaint of having ongoing bleeding after miscarriage and curettage procedure. Uterine AVM was suspected from transvaginal ultrasound. Then the patient underwent pelvic MRI and confirmed that there was an AVM in the left uterine isthmus. Selective angiography found feeding artery from left internal iliac artery, the nidus and draining vein to left iliac vein. Embolization was decided and done using NBCA (n-butyl-cyanoacrylic) and lipiodol. Another angiography was performed and the flow to the nidus was reduced significantly. 24 hours after embolization there was no further vaginal bleeding. Then after 2 months MRI pelvis was performed, no further images of AVM were found in the left isthmus of the uterus
