We describe here several treatment approaches for vascular malformations:

Targeted medication (such as sirolimus, alpelisib) for complex or molecularly identified malformations.
Interventional radiology for minimally invasive, image-guided treatment focused on symptom relief.
Laser therapy as an emerging option for superficial lesions.
Multidisciplinary, personalized care tailored to the type, location, and goals of the patient.
