ABSTRACT
Vascular anomalies are a heterogeneous group of disorders that affect blood and lymphatic
vessels. The International Society for the Study of Vascular Anomalies (ISSVA),
classifies them in two groups: vascular tumors and vascular malformations.
Vascular malformations are entities secondary to congenital errors during vascular
morphogenesis. They are divided according to the malformed vessel into: capillary,
lymphatic, venous, arteriovenous, arteriovenous fistulas, combined malformations and
malformations associated with other anomalies.
Capillary malformations affect skin and mucous membranes, and present as stains
of vascular appearance, most often on the head and neck. Color varies from pink to
erythematous-violaceous. Lymphatic malformations present with an increase in subcutaneous
volume, well-defined, of soft consistency, without changes in the color of the
skin. Venous malformations present as a poorly defined volume increase, with a soft
and compressible consistency, the skin of the surface presents a blue-violet color and
although they are congenital, they may not be evident until puberty or after trauma.
Finally, arteriovenous malformations, which are the least frequent, appear as poorly
defined increase in subcutaneous volume, of firm consistency with a thrill or pulse
on palpation. The importance of this second VA article lies on the ability to categorize
whether it is a vascular tumor or a vascular malformation and offer a proper approach
and treatment from the beginning.
