This retrospective case series evaluates the use of intralesional bleomycin injections in treating orbital venolymphatic malformations (OVLM). Three patients, a 7-year-old girl, a 37-year-old woman, and a 56-year-old man, presented with OVLM where the first two were recurrent cases with a history of failed sclerotherapy. All patients received multiple doses of intralesional bleomycin injections, resulting in significant reductions in lesion size, decreased proptosis, and pain relief.
