Abstrakt: Vascular anomalies include benign or malignant tumors or benign malformations of the arteries, veins, capillaries, or lymphatic vasculature. The genetic etiology of the lesion is essential to define the lesion and can help navigate choice of therapy. . In the United States, about 1.2% of the population has a vascular anomaly, which may be underestimating the true prevalence as genetic testing for these conditions continues to evolve.
