title: Combined treatment of large head and neck capillaro-venous malformation by a fibrosing agent.
abstract: We report our experience of seven cases suffering from capillaro-venous malformation localized in the head and neck area, treated preoperatively by a fibrosing agent--ETHIBLOC. Four of the cases are presented and analysed. We suggest the pre-operative injection of Ethibloc as the treatment of choice for capillaro-venous malformations in the head and neck region.
