ABSTRACT

Soft-tissue vascular anomalies consist of hemangiomas and vascular malformations. Vascular mal-formations are subclassified according to the predominant channel type, namely, arterial, venous, capillary, lymphatic, or a combination of these. Intracranial vascular malformations, on the other hand, consist of capillary telangiectasias, venous angiomas (developmental venous anomalies), cavernous angiomas, and arteriovenous malformations. We present a case who was found to have intracranial developmental venous anomaly and cavernous angioma during evaluation for facial cutaneous vascular anomalies. The coexistence of facial vascular anomalies and intracranial vas-cular anomalies is discussed as well.
