Aim To evaluate the efficacy and safety of embolo-sclerotherapy (EST) of low-flow vascular malformations (LFVM) in a specialist vascular anomalies centre. Method All patients with LFVM who underwent EST from 01 January 2015–31 December 2019 were retrospectively reviewed. All ESTs were performed with foam STS 3%, ethanol, coils and/or other substances e.g., triamcinolone. LFVMs were grouped according to Puig's classification. The outcome measures were treatment effects and complications. Continuous variables were compared using analysis of variance (ANOVA) F test. Other discrete variables were compared using Chi-squared tests. P |
