Vascular Malformations
Treatments for capillaries, arterial-venous malformations and vascular malformations
Artery-venous malformations are fast-flowing malformations in the communication between arteries and veins. There are different types, depending on the type of blood vesselinvolved. They are congenital and can occur intracranial, on the lower limbs, trunk and internal organs. On an aesthetic level, the vascular malformations resemble localized swellings and are diagnosed with ecocolordoppler.
It is important to treat artery-venous malformations as they can cause damage to the affected area and, in the long term to the heart.
How to treat artery-venous malformations and vascular malformations
Symptoms of vascular malformations include:
Headaches and migraines
Convulsions
the wrinkles that are created around the eyes
Muscle weakness
Dizziness
Tingling
Campisi Clinic is one of the best centresspecialized in vascular malformations and their treatment in Italy. The methods of intervention depend on the type of malformation: while the treatment of capillaries with a laser is particularly effective, embolization (i.e. the insertion of a catheter that releases a glue that restores normal blood circulation) is the practice thatworks best against arterial malformations and the injection of a sclerosing substance acts against venous malformations.
Treatments for capillaries
Capillary malformations appear as skin rashes of a strong red or purplish hue. The superficial dermo-hypodermic tissues and mucous membranes contain post-capillary venules dilated abnormally.
How to treat the capillaries? Laser therapy, the specificity of which has been perfected over the years, is the most efficient solution. A treatment for the capillaries on the legs that gives excellent results is also sclerotherapy, ie the injection through very thin needles of a drug that works by closing the blood vessel, causing it to collapse and then making it disappear. The injections last about a quarter of an hour and the results are visible after the fourth session.
