Abstract:
Objective To discuss the application value of intracavitary semiconductor laser therapy in improving facial appearance for child patients with facial venous malformations(VM)after receiving sclerotherapy.Methods The clinical data of 12 child patients with facial VM after receiving sclerotherapy,for whom the improvement of their facial appearance was difficult and who were admitted to the Affiliated Children's Hospital of Zhengzhou University of China from February 2023 to February 2024,were retrospectively analyzed.Intracavitary semiconductor laser treatment was adopted in all the 12 child patients.All the child patients were followed up to check the degree of appearance improvement and lesion volume reduction,and the curative effect was evaluated.Results Three months after intracavitary semiconductor laser treatment,obvious improvement of facial appearance was obtained in all the 12 child patients.The mean postoperative PAC-QOL psychological discomfort score was(10.4±3.9)points,when compared with the preoperative(23.7±4.3)points the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).MRI examination showed that after treatment no obvious improvement of the lesion was seen in 0 case,moderate improvement in one case,significant improvement in 4 cases,and cure in 7 cases.Conclusion Intracavitary semiconductor laser therapy has significant therapeutic effect in improving facial appearance for child patients with facial VM after receiving sclerotherapy,for whom the improvement of their facial appearance is difficult,therefore,this therapy has high clinical application value.
