Treatment of Venous Malformation
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
Vascular malformations are birth defects that happen when different stages of angiogenesis shut down. 44 - 64% of all vascular malformations are venous malformations (VMs). Sclerotherapy is the first treatment line for VMs. It acts by getting rid of the vascular endothelial cells in the lesion. One of the most common and well researched sclerosing agents for VMs is polidocanol, which is a popular counterpart for concentrated ethanol.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Heaviness questionnaire [6 months post operative]
Heaviness of the affected part may be unchanged, or decreased or disppeared, or relapsed
- Disfigurement questionnaire [6 months post operative]
Disfigurementof the affected part may be unchanged, or decreased or disppeared, or relapsed
- size of venous malformation [6 months post operative]
it assess the size of malformations after injection; which may be unchanged, or decreased or disppeared, or relapsed
- Degree of satisfaction [6 months post operative]
It may be; Very satisfied, or satisfied, or not satisfied, or Dissatisfied.
