Abstract

As for treatment of congenital vascular malfomation (CVM), intra-arterial embolization provide transient symptomatic relief but recurrence of the lesion occurs in most cases and surgical excision alone has great potential risk such as massive bleeding, functional deformity and explosive recurrence. Combination of selective embolization of vascular pedicle and immediate surgical excison offers the best chance for definite results. We report here two cases of sucessful treatment of CVM with combination of N-butyl-2-cyanoacrylate (NBCA) glue in embolization and surgery.
