Introduction

Vascular anomalies in some form or another are encountered frequently in day-to-day practice by diagnostic and interventional radiologists alike. In fact, depending on definition, they are now known to occur in at least 1-2% of the entire population. Within the younger pediatric population, the diagnosis of a vascular anomaly will usually mandate some series of medical consultations and possible intervention. A larger number of patients, however, will seek medical attention in adolescence or adulthood, either when lesions become symptomatic, or when incidentally detected by some other study.
