Abstract

Purpose: Here, we report our experience treating a patient with Maffucci syndrome and evaluate the outcomes resulting from surgical management combined with sclerotherapy in the treatment of head and neck venous malformations (VMs). A 19-years-old woman with multiple enchondromas and heterauxesis complained of masses in the oral cavity that had gradually increased in size and eventually affected her daily life. A tracheotomy was performed followed by traditional sclerotherapy to treat the oropharyngeal VMs. Next, we surgically excised the VMs of the oral cavity and maxillofacial skin. Results: Magnetic resonance imaging indicated that the oral VMs were nearly eradicated and the oropharyngeal VMs had stabilized. The patient’s appearance and normal maxillofacial region function were restored. Conclusion: In summary, local resection combined with sclerotherapy facilitated timely and efficient VMs removal from the head and neck region of a patient with Maffucci syndrome.
