Vascular anomalies are non-cancerous birthmarks and lesions, composed of abnormally developed blood vessels. Complicated vascular anomalies can lead to disfigurement, infection, bleeding, visual impairment, feeding difficulties and psychosocial challenges for the affected children and their families. 50-60% of children with vascular abnormalities will require some form of treatment, however treatment remains unavailable to most affected people in Pakistan because of lack of funds, equipment and available expertise .
In Jan 2017, Pakistan- Vascular Anomalies Center (VAC) was established at The Indus Hospital under a multi-disciplinary team, and since Jan 2018 weekly VAC clinics are being conducted. So far, 186 patients have been treated as part of this program.

GOOD FRIDAY APPEAL!
Today I would love to see you all dig a little deeper into the pockets and give to the @goodfridayappeal amd help support @rchmelbourne
Without the support from these amazing humans my daughter may not be here. After months of not knowing what is wrong with her from birth i took her to RCH and its there she was diagnosed with a rare tumor that traps and lowers her platelets. It causes the leg to swell and grow and causes alot of pain.
Thanks to these amazing doctors my daughter is on a treatment that helps her remain pain free and live a near normal life. I owe these people my life. So just for one day don't buy McDonald's or that extra thing u really didn't need and please donate to such an amazing cause.

One of my dearest friends from medical school gave this to me and it couldn’t have come at a better time as I am embarking on a new journey into somewhat uncharted territory in my field...especially for a woman. #maybeillblogaboutit #idk #wishmeluck #staytuned #developments #exciting #journey #newhorizons #womeninmedicine #pediatric #vascularanomalies #interventional #oncology #radiology #medicalscool #medstudent #residency #fellowship #internship #womenbusinessowners
Finally getting into Easter mode now that my board review class to the residents of my alma mater is complete. I’m proud to be able to give back to those who believed in a non-traditional older than 35 year old female who graduated from an international medical school. #thestruggleisreal #IMG #opportunity #work #focus #determination #wheretheresawilltheresaway #easter #bunny #cute #happy #teacher #radiologist #pediatric #vascularanomalies
Just got news that #Holleys #kidneys are being effected by her #medication for her #vascularmalformation #lymphaticmalformation #favamalformation of her leg. so worrisome to give your child a medication that helps with pain and swelling to make her not have pain but at the same time cause other issues!! Ugh!!! Our kids with this #birth #defect need more , more of everything!! It’s so very hard knowing as a parent you can’t just #fixit . So I ask for #prayers, positive thought, good vibes....and keeping Holley in your heart and mind . #vascularanomalies #bornthisway #vascularmalformationsupport #vascularmalformationawareness #givemykidabreak
