This study will include patients who were clinically diagnosed with venous malformation by using ultrasound and/or magnetic resonance imaging, and whose pain persisted even after treatment with medications. Written informed consent for sclerotherapy will be obtained from all patients. The institutional review board approved this prospective study protocol. The primary endpoint is pain relief at three months after sclerotherapy. Local pain related to venous malformation will be evaluated using a numeric rating scale. Patient recruitment commenced in December of 2020. Enrolment of 13 patients is planned over a 3-year recruitment period. Herein, we describe the details of the clinical trial protocol.}, pages = {746--751}, title = {A single-center, single-arm, prospective, open-label trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of percutaneous sclerotherapy with polidocanol for painful venous malformations (SCIRO-2001): study protocol}, volume = {84}, year = {2022} }
