Abstract
Twenty-two patients with cutaneous vascular malformations were treated with an argon laser. Promising results were obtained in patients with port-wine stains, hemangiomas, telangiectasia and varicose veins. The argon laser shows promise as an effective clinical tool in the treatment of all such cutaneous vascular abnormalities. However, further study of clinical as well as laboratory data is necessary over a long period of time before this modality can be definitely recommended as the treatment of choice for vascular deformities of the skin.
