Direct puncture venography in subcutaneous cavernous haemangiomas

The conventional assessment of subcutaneous cavernous haemangiomas by venography, arteriography, ultrasound, computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is often unsatisfactory and fails to show either the extent of the lesion or its feeding and draining vessels. We describe a direc...

Zusammenfassung:The conventional assessment of subcutaneous cavernous haemangiomas by venography, arteriography, ultrasound, computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is often unsatisfactory and fails to show either the extent of the lesion or its feeding and draining vessels. We describe a direct puncture venography technique which successfully delineated the lesions in six patients. The technique was easy to perform and no complications occurred.
