Abstract:
OBJECTIVE. This article reviews the ultrasound characteristics of pediatric slow-flow vascular malformations and underscores findings that significantly impact diagnosis and treatment. Key imaging features are discussed including lesion size, malformation location, morphology, and mimics. CONCLUSION. Ultrasound findings affect the management of slow-flow vascular malformations and should be emphasized in lesion diagnosis. Superficial, focal lesions with well-defined margins are ideal for ultrasound evaluation.
