The authors report a case of a syndrome of KlippelTrenaunay revealed by the venous malformations and osteoalodystrophyof the rightlower limb in the Teaching Hospital of Bouake. Surgery consisted in a vast stripping associated with a right crossectomy. The histological examination of the venous maze was favorable to an angioma. Postoperative outcome was simple. After a drop of 14 months, the patient presents an occasional myalgia arising in the effort. This observation raises the problem of the post-operative evolution of the congenital varicose veins.

Recent advancements in endovascular techniques have transformed the management of vascular malformations, shifting away from traditional surgical resections to less invasive methods like embolization and sclerotherapy. Vascular malformations are congenital anomalies resulting from embryonic angiogenesis failures, often misdiagnosed but manageable through a multidisciplinary approach. These malformations range from high-flow arteriovenous connections to low-flow venous, lymphatic, or mixed lesions, each requiring specific diagnostic and treatment strategies.
