5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to improve port wine stain therapeutic outcome in response to laser therapy. The researchers want to determine whether the combined use of pulsed dye laser therapy and rapamycin will improve PWS therapeutic outcome.
Detailed Description
The researchers want to combined use of pulsed dye laser to induce port wine stain blood vessel injury, and rapamycin directly inhibits the proliferation of vascular endothelial cells driven by vascular endothelial growth factor which preventing port wine stain angiogenesis and recanalization, to improve port wine stain lesion blanching.
