Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The aim of the BEST study is to examine the feasibility of assessing patient and clinician reported outcome of a single electrosclerotherapy treatment of vascular malformations.

* Sclerotherapy = injection of Bleomycin into vascular birthmarks to seal off abnormal vascular channels
* Electroporation = application of an electric field to vessels treated with a handheld needle electrode
* Electrosclerotherapy = a combination of Bleomycin sclerotherapy and electroporation
