Vascular Interventions

Vascular malformations are abnormal clusters of blood vessels that can occur anywhere in the body, including the brain, spine, and extremities. These malformations are usually present from birth and can cause symptoms like pain, bleeding, or neurological issues.

Symptoms We Treat

Causes

Congenital abnormalities in the vascular system, arteriovenous, venous, or lymphatic malformations.

Risks

Potential risks include bleeding, infection, or recurrence of the malformation.

ProcedureS

Embolisation

Injecting materials into the abnormal vessels to block them.

Sclerotherapy

Injecting a solution into the malformation to shrink it.

Laser Therapy

Using focused light to reduce or remove superficial malformations.

Treatment Options

Surgical Resection

In some cases, surgery may be required to remove the malformation entirely.

Endovascular Therapy

Minimally invasive techniques to treat malformations from within the blood vessels.

Combined Treatments

Using a combination of embolisation and surgery for complex cases.

post Procedure Recovery

Recovery times vary depending on the procedure, but most patients can return to normal activities within a few days to a week. Follow-up care is essential to monitor the treated area for any signs of recurrence.

Success rate

The success rate of treating vascular malformations is high, particularly when using embolisation techniques. Success rates can range from 70% to 90%, depending on the size and location.

How many treatments will I need?

Some malformations may require multiple treatments depending on their size and complexity.

What is the recovery time?

Most patients recover within a few weeks, with minimal restrictions on daily activities.

Can the malformation come back?

There is a risk of recurrence, but it is lower with minimally invasive techniques like embolisation.
