Abstract:
Objective To explore ideal treatment strategy for hemangioma and vascular malformations.Methods The clinical data of 863 cases of hemangioma and vascular malformation were analyzed retrospectively.There were 414 male and 449 female patients,The ages ranged from 2 weeks to 55 years.Among these cases,742 were hemangioma while 121 were vascular malformation.The different treatment methods were selected based on the type,location,and extent of the lesion and the patient′s individnal situation.Seven hundred and forty-six patients underwent surgical treatment,89 patients underwent operation combined with sclerotherapy,and 28 patients received embolization of feeding arteries with or without operation.Results Early postoperative results showed that 772 cases(89.46%) were cured,78 cases(9.04%) markedly improved and 13 cases(1.5%) improved.A total of 620 cases were followed up for 0.5-3.0y,of which,556 cases(89.68%) were cured,51 cases(8.23%) markedly improvod,and 13 cases(2.09%) had improved.Conclusions Operation is ideal strategy for the limited disease focus,while non-surgical treatment is necessary for patients with extensive and deep lesions or who are not fit for surgical treatment.Combining surgical treatment and non-surgical treatment can achieve better therapeutic efficiency.
