These conditions can be associated with various types of coagulation derangements.
CLM, capillary-lymphatic malformation; CLOVES, congenital lipomatous (fatty) overgrowth, vascular malformations, epidermal nevi, and scoliosis/ skeletal/spinal anomalies; CLVM, capillary-lymphatic-venous malformation; CM, capillary malformation; CVM, capillary-venous malformation; GLA, generalized lymphatic anomaly; KHE, kaposiform hemangioendothelioma; KLA, kaposiform lymphangiomatosis; KTS, Klippel-Trenaunay syndrome; LM, lymphatic malformation; MLT, multifocal lymphangiomatosis with thrombocytopenia; PROS, PIK3CA-related overgrowth syndrome; TA, tufted angioma; VLM, venous-lymphatic malformation; VM, venous malformation.
