Treatment of Musculoskeletal Vascular Anomalies

ABSTRACT

The treatment of musculoskeletal vascular anomalies can be accomplished by means of challenging image-guided interventional techniques. Most patients benefit clinically from these procedures. Careful planning, appropriate training, and adequate patient care during and after the procedure are important to achieve optimal results and to minimize procedure-related risks.

Vascular malformation - vascular anomalies - angiography - embolization - sclerotherapy
