vascular anomalies
Vascular anomalies are abnormal growths or formations of blood vessels that occur during development. They can be present at birth or develop later and may involve arteries, veins, or lymphatic vessels. These anomalies can vary widely in size and impact, sometimes causing swelling, discoloration, or functional issues depending on their location and type. Unlike tumors, they are not typically cancerous but may require medical evaluation and treatment if they cause problems or symptoms. Understanding and managing vascular anomalies involve careful diagnosis to determine the best approach for each individual case.
