    Abstract:
    Vascular malformations are difficult to treat because of poor results of treatment and recurrence of symptoms. Percutaneous and/or transluminal embolisation has refined the treatment of surface vascular lesions; especially with availability of variety of sclerosants.We report a case of a young girl with vascular malformation of right foot, which was treated with percutaneous sclerotherapy with sodium tetradecyl sulphate (STS). Result was excellent and so far the patient is free of her symptoms.
