We present a glimpse of vascular malformations seen at Sultan Qaboos University Hospital from July 2014 to December 2019. The cases are sporadic in nature. Molecular genetic studies can be conducted in patients with a family history of vascular malformations. Cultural practices relating to dress codes may lead to delays in presentation. A diagnostic/management algorithm about vascular malformations would help healthcare professionals diagnose, counsel, and refer appropriately, and a national registry would further enhance research and patient support groups.
我们展示了2014年7月至2019年12月期间在苏丹卡布斯大学医院所见血管畸形的概况。这些病例本质上是散发性的。对于有血管畸形家族史的患者可进行分子遗传学研究。与着装规范相关的文化习俗可能导致就诊延迟。一个关于血管畸形的诊断/管理算法将有助于医疗保健专业人员进行准确诊断、提供咨询并进行适当转诊，而一个国家登记系统将进一步加强研究以及患者支持团体。
