SummaryVascular malformations are structural abnormalities, errors of vascular morphogenesis, which can be localized in all parts of the vascular system. All vascular malformations by definition, are present at birth and grow proportionately with the child; their volume can change. In contrast to the haemangiomas, which only proliferate from the endothelial cells the division in stages is of clinical importance. Vascular malformations are divided from the part of vascular system, which is affected.In principle the techniques of laser application in congenital vascular tumours like haemangiomas and in vascular malformations are similar, but the aim is different. In tumours the aim is to induce regression, in vascular malformations the aim is to destroy the pathologic vascular structure because there is no spontaneous regression. This means that the parameters for treatment of vascular malformations must be more aggressive than for vascular tumours.

Venous Fistula

Spontaneous CSF–venous fistulas may be present in up to one-fourth of patients with spontaneous intracranial hypotension. This is a recently discovered type of CSF leak, and much remains unknown about these fistulas. Spinal CSF–venous fistulas are usually seen in coexistence with a spinal meningeal diverticulum, suggesting the presence of an underlying structural dural weakness at the proximal portion of the fistula. The authors now report the presence of soft-tissue venous/venolymphatic malformations associated with spontaneous spinal CSF–venous fistulas in 2 patients with spontaneous intracranial hypotension, suggesting a role for distal venous pathology. In a third patient with spontaneous intracranial hypotension and a venolymphatic malformation, such a CSF–venous fistula is strongly suspected.
