title: [Vascular anomalies].
abstract: Vascular anomalies are rare conditions that could be observed at all ages. They are classified, according to their histology, in vascular tumors or vascular malformations. The general practitioner plays a significant role in diagnosis and patient management, diagnosis being suspected on clinical history. In case of vascular anomaly, ultrasound-Doppler assessment is helpful to characterize morphologic and hemodynamic changes of the lesion and permits to monitor the evolution and to detect complications. Further investigations are often necessary prior to multidisciplinary management. In this article, a brief overview of vascular anomalies, their multidisciplinary management and the exemple of Klippel-Trenaunay syndrome are presented.
