Role of sclerotherapy in management of vascular malformation in the maxillofacial region: Our experience

The management of vascular anomalies is an extremely challenging area and is as divergent as the nature of lesions. Traditionally, embolization with the resection of the lesion has been used. The purpose of this report is to present cases treated successfully using sclerosing solution injections alone. Management of the vascular malformation using intralesional injections of sodium tetradecyl sulfate to the lesion is discussed. The procedure was performed two times at 2 weeks interval. Complete resolution of the lesion was found following sclerotherapy. Conservative interventional management using intralesional injection of sclerosing solution was successful in treating vascular anomaly.
