Vascular Anomalies
The Vascular Anomalies Center at Primary Children's Hospital provides comprehensive, multidisciplinary care for patients with vascular malformations and masses such as hemangiomas, ateriovenous malformations (AVMs), lymphatic malformations/cystic hygromas, venous malformations, and other vascular conditions. We offer a full range of treatment options, including surgical excision, sclerotherapy, embolization, laser treatments, propranolol therapy, and steroid injections. We treat children, adolescents, and adults.
Our multidisciplinary team includes:
Dermatology, Genetics, Interventional Radiology, Orthopedic Surgery, Otolaryngology (ENT), Pathology, Pediatric Surgery, and Vascular Surgery.
Conditions We Treat
- Arteriovenous Malformation
Arteriovenous malformations occur blood vessels form incorrectly.
- Capillary Malformation
A capillary malformation is a flat, sharply defined vascular stain of the skin.
- CLOVES Syndrome: CLOVES is an extremely rare progressive overgrowth disorder.
- Fibroadipose Vascular Anomaly: Fibro vascular anomaly is characterized by fibrofatty infiltration of muscle, unusual phlebectasia with pain, and contracture of the affected extremity.
- Hemangioma: A hemangioma is a type of birthmark.
- Klippel-Trenaunay Syndrome: Klippel-Trenaunay syndrome affects the development of blood vessels, soft tissues, and bones.
- Lymphatic Malformation including Cystic Hygroma: A lymphatic malformation is a mass that results from abnormal formation of lymphatic vessels.
