Introduction: Fibroadipose vascular anomaly (FAVA) was described in 2014 as a distinct entity characterised by intramuscular replacement with fibro fatty tissue along with complex vascular malformation, phelbectesia, venous thrombosis and lymphatic involvement. Somatic mutations in the PIK3CA gene are detected in most lesions which diagnosed the FAVA in our report and occurrence of this mutation seems to be sporadic.
Case Report: Common presentation is a painful intramuscular swelling in young women - as was the presentation here in an 11 year girl with the swelling of the right thigh.

Purpose: To propose a standardized method of subjectively and objectively evaluating outcomes of sclerotherapy in treating low flow vascular malformations.

Each lesion required between 2-5 sessions of sclerotherapy with 8-week intervals in between.

Vascular anomalies are classified in two categories, vascular tumors and vascular malformations. Among the latter, venous malformations are the second most common vascular anomalies. In addition to pain and/or increase of volume, venous malformations can lead to phlebolith formation with time.
