Abstract:
Venous malformation(VM)is the most common type of congenital vascular anomaly,characterized by a lifelong progressive course that poses significant threats to patients'physical and mental health.In terms of treatment,the innovative application of radiofrequency ablation(RFA)to VM has emerged as a reliable therapeutic option,demonstrating definitive clinical efficacy while offering advantages such as safety,minimal invasiveness,shorter hospital stays,and lower cost.Nevertheless,there is still no authoritative guideline or consensus,either from domestic or international sources,that provides standardized recommendations for RFA in the treatment of VM.To fill this void,the Emergency Medicine Branch of the Chinese Medical Association and the Interventional Physicians Branch of the Chinese Medical Doctor Association convened a multidisciplinary panel of experts from various fields that include vascular tumor surgery,vascular surgery,plastic surgery,interventional radiology,diagnostic imaging,emergency medicine,general surgery,and internal medicine.Drawing upon both domestic and international research,the panel reviewed and discussed recent advances and the clinical significance of RFA in VM treatment.As a result,they developed and refined the Expert consensus on radiofrequency ablation treatment for venous malformation(2025 version).This consensus includes 20 expert recommendations covering indications,ablation strategies,perioperative management,and approaches to the prevention and management of related complications.The aim is to enhance clinicians'understanding and practical skills in the standardized application of RFA for VM,thereby ensuring its safety and effectiveness in clinical practice.
