Port-wine stains (PWS) are one of the most common congenital vascular malformations. PWS lesions result in pink or purplish red patches on skin, which mostly occur on the face or neck, thus greatly reduce the life quality of PWS patients. The key point of treating PWS is selectively block the dilated vessels located in the dermis. Hence, mastering the information of PWS morphological parameters would contribute to PWS treatment.

This review will address what is presently known about OCT on PWS detection at home and abroad.
