RESUMO
PURPOSE: To investigate the clinical efficacy and safety of bipolar coagulation forceps combined with 1% lauromacrogol foam sclerotherapy in the treatment of microcystic lymphatic malformation of tongue. METHODS: The clinical data of 16 patients with microcystic lymphatic malformation of the tongue admitted to the Department of Stomatology of Foshan First People's Hospital from April 2017 to April 2020 were retrospectively analyzed, including 7 males and 9 females, aging from 15 months to 21 years. The average age of patients was 8.32±1.21 years. The efficacy and complications of the patients were evaluated. RESULTS: All 16 patients were followed up for 6 to 12 months. The clinical response was evaluated as eleven patients (68.75%) for grade â £, three (18.75%) for grade â ¢, two (12.5%) for grade â ¡, and the effective rate was 87.5%. Necrosis of tongue mucosa and muscle occurred in 1 patient. CONCLUSIONS: Bipolar coagulation forceps combined with 1% lauromacrogol foam sclerotherapy is a minimally invasive, safe and effective treatment for tongue microcystic lymphatic malformation.

PURPOSE: To explore the DSA classification and treatment strategy of tongue venous malformation. METHODS: From February 2016 to February 2019, the DSA manifestations of 132 cases with venous malformations of the tongue were summarized. They were classified into 4 types according to imaging characteristics: typeâ (non-drainage type), typeâ ¡(lower- drainage type), type â ¢ (higher-drainage type), type â £(extensive type). Different therapeutic schemes were selected according to the types. The non- drainage type was treated with pingyangmycin alone, the lower-drainage type was treated with lauromacrogol foam alone, the higher- drainage type was treated with absolute alcohol combined with lauromacrogol foam, the extensive type was treated as higher-drainage type first and then combined with plastic resection. Among the cases, therapeutic effects and adverse reactions of each group were recorded and compared. RESULTS: One hundred and thirty-two cases in this study were followed up for 12 to 41 months with an average of 15.8 months. After sclerosing therapy, the venous malformations of the tongue of all patients significantly reduced or even disappeared. Type â included 8 cases with an efficiency of 100%, type â ¡ included 17 cases with an efficiency of 100%, type â ¢ included 98 cases with an efficiency of 90.8%, typeâ £included 9 cases, with an efficiency of 77.8%.The main adverse reactions were tissue necrosis: 0 in typeâ , 1(5.88%) in typeâ ¡, 16(16.33%) in type â ¢, and 7(77.78%) in type â £. CONCLUSIONS: The classification of venous malformations of the tongue based on DSA is significant and valuable in guiding clinical treatment. The majority of tongue venous malformations are type â ¢, and the smallest propotion is type â . Transmucosal sclerotherapy with absolute ethanol is of significance for the treatment of venous malformations of the tongue classified in type â ¢ and type â £.
