What should I do if a congenital hemangioma has recurred after surgery?

Patient's question:

A while ago, I finished my surgery and feel much better physically, and my appetite has improved too. However, recently I've been feeling some weakness in my body, and it's especially uncomfortable when I sleep. I sometimes experience dizziness and blurred vision. What should I do if a congenital vascular tumor has recurred after surgery?

Doctor's answer:

Once symptoms appear, check as soon as possible. If there is a recurrence, then undergo gamma knife treatment, which increases the success rate. Angiomas do not have a complete fatty capsule. There are many abnormal blood vessels around them. During surgery, doctors can only see the angioma with the naked eye, but some abnormal blood vessels are hidden within the surrounding muscle groups. If there is any damage, doctors cannot remove the surrounding normal large muscles. If the blood vessels are present, they will recur again.
