Article Abstract
Capillary malformations (CMs) are congenital low-flow vascular anomalies caused by dilated capillaries. Leg length discrepancy (LLD) is the condition characterized by unequal lower limb lengths, leading to functional and postural challenges. Capillary malformation with leg length discrepancy (CM-LLD) formally reveals syndrome such as Klippel-Trenaunay syndrome and Diffuse Capillary Malformation Overgrowth. In this study, we report a syndromic capillary malformation with leg length discrepancy diagnosed as Parkers-Weber Syndrome by radiology and genetic study. This study emphases on understanding the association between CM-LLD, ensuring timely genetic testing, intervention, optimizing functional outcomes, and improving quality of life for individuals with Parkes-Weber syndrome.

Background: Parkes Weber syndrome (PWS) is a rare congenital vascular syndrome characterized by complex capillary malformation , venous malformation, lymphatic malformation, and arteriovenous malformation (AVM) in the affected limb with overgrowth; the latter is a pathognomonic feature that differentiates it from Klippel-Trenaunay syndrome. Cardiovascular complications include increased cardiac output, which promotes the onset of heart failure and the development of pulmonary hypertension (PAH), significantly impairing the quality of life due to severe functional class deterioration. However, these complications are currently treatable by ligation or removal of malformations.

Objective: To present a retrospective analysis, clinical picture, diagnostic and surgical tactics in the clinical observation of capillary blood vessel malformation.
Unlabelled: The article presents an analysis of a clinical case of capillary malformation in a 17-year-old boy who was admitted to the children's clinic of the Central Research Institute of Dentistry and Maxillofacial Surgery after inadequate, long-term treatment with various treatment methods for capillary-type blood vessel malformations in the lower lip area. Incorrectly chosen treatment tactics led to hypertrophy and scarring of soft tissue in the affected area.

Port wine stain (PWS) is a vascular, benign congenital malformation, which presents at birth and persists for life. PWS usually appears as flat red macule but tend to darken progressively to purple with soft tissue hypertrophy and may often develop disfiguring vascular nodules leading to a reduced quality of life for patients. Therapeutic interventions include the use of different laser systems such as pulsed dye lasers.
