lungs
in the body, the vascular system consists of arteries, veins and capillaries. when abnormalities such as vascular malformation, capillary arteriovenous malformations (avms), arteriovenous fistulas (avfs) and overgrowth of a limb occur together in combination and disturb the complex network of blood vessels of the vascular system, it is known as pws. the capillary malformations and avfs are known to be present from the birth. in some cases, pws is a genetic condition where the "rasa1" gene is mutated and displays an autosomal dominant inheritance pattern. if pws is genetic then most patients show multiple capillary malformations. patients who do not have multiple capillary malformations most likely did not inherit pws and do not have rasa1 mutations. in such cases, the cause of pws is often unknown and is sporadic as most cases often are.

vascular surgery is a surgical subspecialty in which diseases of the vascular system, or arteries, veins and lymphatic circulation, are managed by medical therapy, minimally-invasive catheter procedures, and surgical reconstruction. the specialty evolved from general and cardiac surgery as well as minimally invasive techniques pioneered by interventional radiology. the vascular surgeon is trained in the diagnosis and management of diseases affecting all parts of the vascular system except those of the heart and brain. cardiothoracic surgeons and interventional cardiologists treat diseases of the heart vessels. vascular surgeons treat extracranial cerebrovascular disease while neurosurgeons and interventional neuroradiologists treat diseases of the vessels in the brain (e.g., intracranial aneurysms).
