Background: Venous malformations (VMs) are a rare disease with an incidence of only about 1/10,000 in children, but VMs can expand as the child grows, appearing more in shallow skin areas such as the neck of the head, can cause discomfort or degradation, and therefore, can seriously affect the physical and mental health of the child. There are numerous treatment options for VMs, and interventional embolosclerotherapy has become the clinically preferred treatment for VMs due to its many advantages. Case Presentation: We summarize the perioperative care experience of a 10-year-old child with severe right facial malformation diagnosed as facial venous malformation (VMs) who underwent interventional embolization during hospitalization. After 14 days of careful treatment and nursing by medical staff, the child was discharged successfully. Discussion: The key points of our perioperative care for this patient include paying attention to the mental health of the child and providing psychological support; strengthening health education and paying attention to the prevention of falls; preoperative preparation; intraoperative care; observation of the condition; pain assessment and care; strengthening discharge guidance; and doing a good job in continuous nursing. Conclusion: For the nursing of the child with facial venous malformations, it is necessary to pay attention not only to their physiological care but also to their psychological care to help them recover as soon as possible.
