Patient's question:
When a child is born, there is a purple-blue patch, similar to a birthmark, the size of a fingernail on the left temple. As they grow older, it has grown slightly (now three years old). There is no discomfort, and it becomes slightly prominent when the child cries.Doctor's answer:
Hello! Hemangioma is a vascular malformation. It is recommended to detect and treat hemangioma early. The child can receive treatment after the full moon.Based on your examination report, the preliminary consideration is a cavernous hemangioma, which does not require surgical removal.
Hemangiomas are caused by congenital vascular malformations. They lack a substantive capsule surrounding the tumor. Simple surgical removal is difficult to achieve complete removal, prone to recurrence, and leaves scars.
Such cavernous hemangiomas can be treated using minimally invasive interventional therapy. The child will experience little pain, and after treatment, there will be no recurrence or scars.
