Combined treatment with Nd:YAG laser and polidocanol foam sclerotherapy in venous malformation of the hand: case report.

Venous malformations of the hand represent a clinical and therapeutic challenge due to anatomical complexity and functional and aesthetic impact. We report the case of a 13-year-old female patient with a venous malformation of the hand, treated with a combined approach using Nd:YAG 1064 nm transdermal laser and 1% polidocanol foam sclerotherapy. The combination of photocoagulation and sclerotherapy proved safe and effective in a superficial and localized lesion. This case underscores the relevance of combined therapy as a minimally invasive alternative for venous malformations of the hand, highlighting the importance of individualized treatment according to lesion location, depth, and extent.
