[Invasive vascular deformities of the face and scalp. Diagnostic and therapeutic evaluation by angiography: review of 32 cases 1977-1980].

Angiography was employed in 32 patients with cutaneous or subcutaneous angiomas of the face and scalp in order to establish diagnosis and assess results of therapy. Pre-treatment angiographic appearances as a function of their location are discussed, and the results of embolisation reported. Total surgical excision was possible whenever initial therapy had included embolisation, no complications being noted after embolisation, and no lesions becoming worse.
