Genetic variations affecting the development of vessel endothelial cells are unclear. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the potential value of the miR-100 rs1834306 A>G polymorphism as a marker of susceptibility to venous malformation.Methods: In this case–control study in southern Chinese children, we collected blood samples from 1158 controls and 1113 patients with venous malformation. TaqMan genotyping of miR-100 rs1834306 A>G was performed by real-time fluorescent quantitative polymerase chain reaction.Results: Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that there was no significant association between the presence of the miR-100 rs1834306 A>G polymorphism and susceptibility to venous malformation by evaluating the values of pooled odds ratios and 95% confidence intervals. Similarly, among different sites, rs1834306 A>G was also not associated with venous malformation.Conclusion: Our results suggest that the miR-100 rs1834306 A>G polymorphism is not associated with susceptibility to venous malformation in southern Chinese children. These results need to be further confirmed by investigating a more diverse ethnic population of patients with venous malformations.Keywords: vascular malformation, susceptibility, miR-100, polymorphism
