A CLINICAL STUDY OF VASCULAR ANOMALIES AND THEIR MANAGEMENT IN A TERTIARY CARE CENTER IN TELANGANA

Aim & Objectives Of The Study Aim Of The Study: The aim of this study is to analyze the various modalities of treatment for vascular anomalies and their response at a Tertiary care centre in Telangana.

Objectives Of The Study: 1. To study the incidence of various vascular anomalies. 2. To study the demographic features of various vascular anomalies. 3. To study the various modalities of treatment used at Tertiary care center 4. To study the complications.

Need For The Study: Vascular anomalies signify a deviation from normal vasculature. Their morbidity can range from mild discoloration of skin to massive involvement leading to functional compromise ?These anomalies include a group of disorders which are difficult to classify as well as to treat. ?They are commonly misdiagnosed and hence mistreated. Hence, correct diagnosis which is of paramount importance for the proper management of vascular anomalies is done by proper history and clinical examination and proper investigations like color Doppler study and if needed Angiogram. ?These lesions can cause cosmetic deformities of the head and neck and can interfere with the normal function in these areas. ?Hence, early diagnosis with clinical evaluation and investigations like Color doppler study and if needed angiogram and treatment needs to be done to avoid dangerous complications associated with these lesions such as bleeding, cosmetic deformity, airway obstruction which might even cause death of the individual.
