Patient's question:
The baby was diagnosed with a hemangioma right after birth, but its location was a cause for concern—it was inside the brain. The doctor said it was benign and didn't need to be worried about, as it might absorb itself over time. As long as it didn't grow, it was fine, and regular follow-ups were recommended. Does a congenital hemangioma in the brain have any impact?Doctor's answer:
A hemangioma is a vascular abnormality caused by vascular dysplasia. This condition is neither benign nor malignant because it is not a tumor. For this disease, treatment is usually not necessary unless there are obvious clinical symptoms, such as dizziness, headaches, and vertigo, which can be surgically removed. Surgery is generally quite effective. If you are considering surgery, I recommend that you go to the hospital early to get a detailed understanding.
