ABSTRACT
Background: Vascular malformation is a general term that includes congenital vascular anomalies of veins, lymph vessels, both veins and lymph vessels, or both arteries and veins vascular malformation, is a blood vessel abnormality. These are all present at birth and become apparent at different ages. Most are known to occur during development of the arteries, veins, and/or lymph vessels, but without specific cause. Most are congenital and few appear late in life. Aim: It was using different treatment modalities to reform, reshape, and reorganize to obtain near normal appearance and function. Materials and methods: An observational study done in VIMS - Visakha Institute of Medical Sciences, a superspeciality hospital, 20 cases of vascular malformations are taken from period January 2017 –August 2019. Consent was taken from all the patients, and counseling was done regarding the procedures we do, about surgical/ non-surgical methods, stages required and follow up. Results: Statistical analysis was done, results were tabulated and displayed in pie diagrams. Satisfaction scale was shown by VAS (visual analogue scale). Conclusion: Vascular malformations are mesenchymal lesions may be congenital/ acquired and may present late in life. Sometimes few congenital hemangiomas spontaneously resolve by growth of child, some if large may require steroids for suppression and to prevent recurrences. They are known for recurrences or residual lesions and surgery may be done in stages to obtain optimal results. Nonsurgical methods are done by intralesional sclerosants.
