Abstract

We describe a case of venous malformation of pyriform sinus in 63 year-old patient, discovered incidentally. Venous malformation are the most common vascular malformations to arise in the head and neck. However venous malformation of the hypopharynx in the adult papulation are rare. The author performed successfully ethanol sclerotherapy for venous malformation of pyriform sinus, so we present the case with a review of the related literatures. Key words: Pyriform sinus ㆍ Venous malformation ㆍ Ethanol ㆍ Sclerotherapy 핵심용어: 이상와 ㆍ ì •ë§¥ 기형 ㆍ 에탄올 경화요법
