Summary
This study presents a rare case of venous vascular malformation in the submandibular region. Early diagnosis via imaging and surgical treatment were key to managing this challenging vascular lesion.
Area of Science:
- Vascular Surgery
- Diagnostic Imaging
- Pathology
Background:
- Vascular lesions are classified as hemangiomas or vascular malformations based on cellular proliferation.
- These lesions can lead to significant morbidity and mortality in all age groups.
- Challenges in diagnosis and treatment include confusing nomenclature, rarity, and lack of multidisciplinary approaches.
Purpose of the Study:
- To report a rare case of venous vascular malformation.
- To highlight diagnostic challenges and effective management strategies.
- To emphasize the importance of advanced imaging in diagnosis.
Main Methods:
- Case report of a venous vascular malformation.
- Utilized various imaging techniques for diagnosis.
- Surgical intervention for treatment.
Main Results:
- A rare venous vascular malformation presented as a submandibular mass.
- The lesion lacked typical clinical stigmata.
- Diagnosis was confirmed through comprehensive imaging studies.
Conclusions:
- Venous vascular malformations can present atypically.
- Multimodality imaging is crucial for accurate diagnosis.
- Surgical treatment can be effective for localized venous malformations.

01:20Venous Thrombosis II: Clinical Manifestations and Diagnostic Studies
445
The key difference between Superficial Vein Thrombosis (SVT) and Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) lies in their location and severity.Clinical ManifestationsSVT typically presents with localized pain, tenderness, and redness along the course of a superficial vein, often accompanied by a palpable, cord-like structure under the skin. This condition is usually less dangerous than DVT but can be uncomfortable and may lead to complications such as cellulitis or, rarely, a clot extension into the deep...

742
Venous thrombosis, the most common disorder of the veins, involves the formation of a thrombus or blood clot associated with vein inflammation. It can be classified as either superficial vein thrombosis or deep vein thrombosis.Superficial Vein Thrombosis: This involves the formation of a thrombus in a superficial vein, usually the greater or lesser saphenous vein. Though less severe than deep vein thrombosis (DVT), SVT can lead to complications if untreated.Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT): This...

The blood drainage from the head and neck is primarily managed by three pairs of veins: the external jugular, internal jugular, and vertebral veins. The external jugular veins drain superficial scalp and face structures, passing over the sternocleidomastoid muscles to empty into the subclavian veins.
On the other hand, the vertebral veins, unlike their arterial counterparts, are not primarily responsible for brain drainage. Instead, they drain the cervical vertebrae, spinal cord, and some small...

Venous thrombosis requires effective prevention and treatment strategies to improve patient outcomes and reduce potential complications.Prevention StrategiesHealthcare providers must prioritize preventing venous thromboembolism (VTE) for all adult patients upon admission. Interventions depend on bleeding and thrombosis risk, medical history, current medications, diagnoses, planned procedures, and patient preferences. Patients on bed rest should change positions every two hours and, if not...
