Cutaneous VMs are difficult to treat due to risk of injury and deformation. The purpose of this study was to examine the safety and efficacy of a modified neodymium-doped yttrium aluminum garnet laser (modified ND:YAG) in the management of cutaneous VMs.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Methods:<\/jats:title>\n Retrospective chart review of patients undergoing modified ND:YAG therapy for cutaneous VMs and a blind prospective evaluation of photographs, performed by 10 reviewers, before and after treatment for growth, stability, improvement, or resolution of VMs.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Results:<\/jats:title>\n \n Forty-five patients (18 males and 27 females) who underwent modified ND:YAG therapy for a cutaneous VM were identified. Based on photographic review, modified ND:YAG therapy elicited improvement in the appearance of VMs in 72% of the patients,\n \u03c7<\/jats:italic>\n 2<\/jats:sup>\n (1,\n N<\/jats:italic>\n \u2009=\u200945)\u2009=\u200925.94,\n p<\/jats:italic>\n \u2009<\u20090.0001, with reviewers noting complete resolution in 8.2%, significant improvement in 34.5%, some improvement in 29.3%, and no growth or improvement in 20.9% of patients. Growth of the VM was noted in 7.3% of patients. Three (6.7%) patients reported complications from the treatment, which included infection, bleeding, blister, and color change. Four patients (8.9%) reported pretreatment pain, which resolved in three (75.0%) after treatment.\n <\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Conclusions:<\/jats:title>\n Modified ND:YAG therapy can provide safe and effective treatment for cutaneous VMs and should be considered in the multimodal management of VMs.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1089\/fpsam.2020.0268","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,8,28]],"date-time":"2020-08-28T10:27:31Z","timestamp":1598610451000},"page":"289-293","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":8,"title":["Modified ND:YAG Laser Therapy in the Treatment of Cutaneous Venous Malformations"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"23","author":[{"given":"Thomas Ples","family":"Spradley","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Otolaryngology and Head and Neck Surgery, University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, Arkansas Children's Research Hospital and Research Institute, Little Rock, Arkansas, USA."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Adam B.","family":"Johnson","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Otolaryngology and Head and Neck Surgery, University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, Arkansas Children's Research Hospital and Research Institute, Little Rock, Arkansas, USA."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Heather D.","family":"Wright","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Otolaryngology and Head and Neck Surgery, University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, Arkansas Children's Research Hospital and Research Institute, Little Rock, Arkansas, USA."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Jay M.","family":"Kincannon","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Otolaryngology and Head and Neck Surgery, University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, Arkansas Children's Research Hospital and Research Institute, Little Rock, Arkansas, USA."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Gresham T.","family":"Richter","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Otolaryngology and Head and Neck Surgery, University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, Arkansas Children's Research Hospital and Research Institute, Little Rock, Arkansas, USA."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,7,6]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_3_3_2_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1067\/mva.2000.101464"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_3_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/lary.20715"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_4_2","author":"Richter GT","unstructured":"Richter GT, , Friedman AB.
