Second row: 6 weeks after the last session. The dimensions of the nodule were 19x17x24 mm (width x depth x length).

Third row: 10 months after sclerotherapy. The dimensions of the nodule were 17x15x23 mm (width x depth x length).

Fourth row: 5 years after sclerotherapy. The dimensions of the nodule were 19x16x23 mm (width x depth x length).
