High-flow vascular malformation treatment using ultrasound-guided laser combined with polidocanol sclerotherapy

Yan Zhang et al. J Med Ultrason (2001). 2015 Jul.

Abstract

The current treatment for vascular malformations includes surgery, sclerotherapy, and embolization. However, each method has its limitations, such as recurrence, complications, scarring, and radiation exposure. Therefore, identifying an effective, minimally invasive treatment that reduces lesion recurrence is particularly important. We describe in detail a patient who received treatment with ultrasound-guided laser interruption of feeding vessels combined with polidocanol sclerotherapy after the recurrence of forearm high-flow vascular malformation.

Keywords: Laser; Polidocanol; Ultrasound; Vascular malformations.
