What is it?<\/h2>

<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div>[vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

It is a common type of neoplasm<\/strong> (tumor) during infancy. They grow typically during the first months of age. Parents are worried about the cosmetic result; however, 50%<\/strong> of the hemangiomas regress until 5 years of age and 70%<\/strong> until 7 years. Vascular malformations<\/strong>, such as port-wine stains and arteriovenous malformations are distinct clinical entities, which are always present at birth<\/strong> and never <\/strong>regress.<\/p>\n

The procedure<\/h3>

Surgical treatment is only indicated for hemangiomas which bleed and\/or ulcerate. The majority of them are likely to regress on their own; so, no treatment is necessary. Hemangiomas in eyelids, nose and other special locations can be treated with propranolol, which accelerates their regression.<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div>[\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner row_type=”row” type=”full_width” text_align=”left” css_animation=””][vc_column_inner][vc_single_image image=”21752″ img_size=”medium” qode_css_animation=””][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″ el_class=”my-contact-column withimagecol” offset=”vc_col-lg-4″]
