Abstract
- Vascular anomalies encompass a spectrum of tumors and malformations that can cause significant morbidity and mortality in children and adults. Use of the International Society for the Study of Vascular Anomalies (ISSVA) classification system is strongly recommended for consistency. Vascular anomalies can occur in isolation or in association with clinical syndromes that involve complex multifocal lesions affecting different organ systems. Thus, it is critical to be familiar with the differences and similarities among vascular anomalies to guide selection of the appropriate imaging studies and possible interventions. Syndromes associated with simple vascular malformations include hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia, blue rubber bleb nevus syndrome, Gorham-Stout disease, and primary lymphedema. Syndromes categorized as vascular malformations associated with other anomalies include Klippel-Trenaunay-Weber syndrome, Parkes Weber syndrome, Servelle-Martorell syndrome, Maffucci syndrome, macrocephaly-capillary malformation, CLOVES (
