Abstract
INTRODUCTION Spider naevi (SN) are considered a subtype of telangiectasias, currently classified as low-flow vascular malformations. OBJECTIVE To describe the videodermoscopy and Doppler-ultrasound (US) features of a large group of SN. MATERIAL AND METHODS A retrospective study of cases of SN collected at our Dermatology department during the period between June 2015 and June 2017 was performed. Clinical images, dermoscopic, videodermoscopic and Doppler-US files were reviewed. For each case, the age of the patient, time since onset, size and dermoscopic pattern of the lesions were recorded. The presence of pulsatility was also evaluated visually on the videodermoscopy. RESULTS Two hundred and thirty-three SN in 189 patients were included. The mean age was 39.5 years (range: 10-76 years). Mean size of the lesions was 4.1 ± 2.0 mm. We described three dermoscopic patterns: network, star and looping. Older age, longer time since onset and larger size were found associated with higher frequency of the looping and star patterns compared to that of network pattern (P < 0.01). Pulsatility during videodermoscopy was found in 88 patients (37%). This pulsatility phenomenon was more commonly associated with the looping pattern (64.7%) than star- (40.3%) or network-like patterns (29.9%) (P < 0.001). In Doppler-US studies, a high-flow with arterial biphasic waveform was found. CONCLUSIONS In the light of the results, we support that SN could be reconsidered in upcoming classifications as lesions closer to the group of high-flow arteriovenous malformations.

Abstract
Pulsed dye laser (PDL) treatment of port-wine stains (PWSs) in children is a common procedure performed in most laser units. Pain assessment in our younger patients is a major concern, especially in those with extensive PWSs. The use of general anesthesia (GA) results in pain-free treatment, but its effects on the developing brain are far from totally understood. Thus we propose some tips that avoid the use of GA in most of our young patients, including the use of topical anesthetics and cooling systems, large laser spot size and high frequencies, early and frequent treatment with parents present, and the "introduction" and "pressure" techniques, among others.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Among the different approaches for improving the effectiveness in the treatment of Capillary Malformations type Port Wine Stain (CM type PWS) are the intense pulsed light sources. There are few clinical studies prove useful in the treatment of CM. Furthermore, no studies have been published yet demonstrating the histological effects of IPL in CM. OBJECTIVES To assess the histological effects of pulsed light in capillary malformations type port wine stain. We wanted to compare epidermal, dermal and vessel wall damage after treatment with different combinations of IPL parameters. MATERIAL AND METHODS Fifty-five post-treatment biopsies were performed in 15 consenting patients with CM and stained with nitroblue-tetrazolium chloride (NBTC). Patients had not been treated previously. RESULTS Fifteen patients with CM, with a median age of 39 years-old were enrolled in this study. In this series, the patients with the most severe epidermal damage were those with a darker phototype. Pink CM were especially resistant to treatment, even using high fluences, short pulse durations and stacking pulses. Longer intra- and interpulse delays were effective in purple CM, achieving adequate vessel destruction. CONCLUSIONS IPL devices provide a vast amount of treatment possibilities and further studies are necessary to optimize therapeutic approaches to CM. In this study we have observed the histological effects of different pulses on the MC type PWS.

Abstract
AIM Lasers and non-coherent intense pulse light sources (IPLS) are based on the principle of selective photothermolysis and can be used for the treatment of many vascular skin lesions. A variety of lasers has been developed for the treatment of congenital and acquired vascular lesions which incorporate these concepts into their design. Although laser and light sources are very popular due to their non-invasive nature, caution should be considered by practitioners and patients to avoid permanent side-effects. The aim of these guidelines is to give evidence-based recommendations for the use of lasers and IPLS in the treatment of vascular lesions. METHODS These guidelines were produced by a Consensus Panel made up of experts in the field of vascular laser surgery under the auspices of the European Society of Laser Dermatology. Recommendations on the use of vascular lasers and IPLS were made based on the quality of evidence for efficacy, safety, tolerability, cosmetic outcome, patient satisfaction/preference and, where appropriate, on the experts' opinion. The recommendations of these guidelines are graded according to the American College of Chest Physicians Task Force recommendations on Grading Strength of Recommendations and Quality of Evidence in Clinical Guidelines. RESULTS Lasers and IPLS are very useful and sometimes the only available method to treat various vascular lesions. It is of a paramount importance that the type of laser or IPLS and their specific parameters are adapted to the indication but also that the treating physician is familiar with the device to be used. The crucial issue in treating vascular lesions is to recognize the immediate end-point after laser treatment. This is the single most important factor to ensure both the efficacy of the treatment and avoidance of serious side-effects.

Abstract
Several reports have shown the effectiveness of pulsed dye laser (PDL) for the treatment of basal cell carcinoma (BCC). Most studies have focused on low-risk BCCs, but an important limitation has been the lack of histologic confirmation of the treatment results. The aim of this study was to assess the effectiveness of PDL in high-risk BCCs with complete histologic evaluation with Mohs micrographic surgery (MMS). Seven patients with high-risk BCCs located on the face were included. All tumors were treated with three sessions of PDL (595 nm) at 4-week intervals. The tumor and 4 mm of peripheral skin were treated with two stacked pulses with a 1-s delay, a fluence of 15 J/cm(2), a pulse duration of 2 ms, and a spot size of 7 mm. MMS was performed at least 1 month after the last PDL session including excisional tumor debulking prior to the first stage of MMS for standard histologic evaluation. Apparent complete clinical response was achieved in five of seven patients. MMS was finally performed in six patients, and clear margins were achieved after one stage of MMS. The histologic evaluation of the tumor debulking specimens showed complete clearance in four of six cases. One patient who did not undergo MMS showed a recurrence after 14 months. This is the first pilot study that demonstrates that PDL can be effective for the treatment of high-risk BCCs. Until further scientific evidence is available, treatment of high-risk BCCs should include histologic confirmation of clearance.

Abstract
A congenital smooth muscle hamartoma is a rare, benign proliferation of smooth muscle bundles in the dermis that is usually diagnosed in the neonatal period or infancy. Surgical excision is the first-line therapeutic option, but in certain areas such as the face, surgery may be too aggressive, and different treatments should be considered. We present the case of a congenital smooth muscle hamartoma on the face treated using pulsed dye laser with good response.

Abstract
Glomovenous malformations are disseminated variants of cutaneous glomus tumors. These malformations are subdivided into regional or localized, disseminated, and congenital plaque-like forms. The congenital plaque-like form is the rarest variant. Most treatment modalities have been disappointing in the treatment of large glomangiomas, leading to high recurrence rates. We report a case of a 34-year-old man with a congenital plaque-like glomangioma on his left arm and forearm treated successfully with sequential pulsed-dye neodymium yttrium aluminum garnet laser.
