Brief Summary

The purpose of this research is to gather information on the safety and effectiveness of core biopsy of vascular anomalies for clinical pathology and clinical genomics studies.

Detailed Description

Vascular anomalies or vascular malformations often are treated with minimally invasive sclerotherapy, embolization or ablation based on clinical and imaging features without acquisition of tissue. Over the last two decades there have been significant advancements in the understanding of the genetic basis for various vascular anomalies/malformations, which may guide use of therapies for individualized treatment.

As such, given the emergence of novel medications for treatment of vascular anomalies/malformations based on genetic information, acquisition of tissue for pathology and genomic characterization will be increasingly important as treatment of vascular anomalies/vascular malformations moves toward individualized medicine approach.

Vascular anomaly/malformation biopsyPercutaneous Vascular Anomaly/Malformation BiopsySubjects with a vascular anomaly will have a research percutaneous vascular anomaly/malformation biopsy completed at the time of the clinically indicated percutaneous sclerotherapy, embolization and/or ablation.
Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Adequacy of core biopsy of vascular anomalies for clinical pathology evaluation18 months

Tissue from the vascular anomaly biopsies will undergo histopathology and immunohistochemical staining to determine the adequacy of vascular anomaly core biopsy for clinical pathology characterization.

Adequacy of core biopsy of vascular anomalies for clinical genomics studies18 months

DNA and RNA will be extracted from the biopsy specimens, undergo qualitative/quantitative quality control assessment and be analyzed by whole genome sequencing (DNA) and RNA sequence analysis (RNA-seq) to determine the adequacy of vascular anomaly biopsy for vascular anomaly genomics characterization.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Safety of vascular anomaly core biopsy30 days

Number of participants with biopsy-related adverse events as assessed by CTCAE v4.0
