Article Synopsis
- A retrospective study was conducted to examine the safety and effectiveness of using absolute ethanol with n-butyl cyanoacrylate for treating advanced venous malformations in children, performed at a medical center in Guangzhou, China, from 2009 to 2014.
- Out of 121 children treated, 21 cases were identified as advanced Puig's venous malformation, and treatment led to a 71% success rate in controlling the malformations after an average follow-up of 15 months.
- The study reported a low complication rate of 14.3%, with mostly minor issues, suggesting that the combined sclerotherapy method is a promising option for managing these vascular conditions in pediatric patients.
The aim of this study was to investigate the therapeutic efficacies and treatment effects of absolute ethanol and bleomycin for the treatment of venous malformation (VM) in children. A total of 138 children with VM were randomly divided into two groups; 75 patients were treated with absolute ethanol, while a further 63 were treated with bleomycin under general anesthesia between February 2009 and February 2012. The treatment outcome and complications were observed in the two groups and the treatment efficacy was classified as one of four categories: cured, markedly effective, effective and ineffective.
