Abstract

The management of severe and complicated venous malformation is still not standardized currently. Sirolimus has been reported to successfully treat complicated vascular anomalies in many case reports and clinical trials recently. One case of extremely severe and complicated venous malformation of right upper limb and trunk was described. After 2 years of oral treatment with sirolimus, the lesion was significantly resolved, and no obvious recurrence was found after 1 year of follow-up.
