“…In this study females were predominant, 19 girls and 9 boys. Table 1 ( [3][4][5][6][7][8][9], shows that oral haemangiomas in children can reach up to 5 cm in size. In this study the mean diameter of the lesion was 1.67 cm (range 1-3cm).…”

“…According to different authors (3,4,6), the treatment of choice is surgical excision of the lesion. After reviewing the articles published between 1999 and 2009 on haemangiomas in the oral region, 7 publications were found (Table 1) (3)(4)(5)(6)(7)(8)(9). Some authors (4,5) studied maxillofacial tumours in pediatric patients specifying the incidence of haemangiomas, while others have published isolated case reports (3,7,9 …”

Objective: To present a large series of oral haemangiomas in children, analyzing the clinical characteristics, treatment and outcome of oral haemangiomas in 28 children. Material and Methods: We conducted an observational retrospective study, reviewing medical records with clinical diagnosis of haemangioma between 1990 and 2006 at the Children's Maxillofacial Surgery Service of the Hospital Universitario la Fe, Valencia. All patients with a clinical, radiographic, pathologically confirmed diagnosis of oral haemangioma were included. Results: The study included 28 patients (19 females and 9 males) with a mean age of 4.27 years (range 0-14 years). Nine were congenital haemangioma. The most frequent location of oral haemangioma was in the lip with 23 cases, followed by three cases in the tongue and 2 in the buccal mucosa. The mean diameter of the lesion was 1.67 cm (range 1-3cm). The mean duration of the lesion was 6.3 months (range 1 month to 5 years). Of the 28 haemangiomas, 13 were surgically removed, 2 were treated with embolization and 13 disappeared spontaneously. The mean follow up was 2.7 months (1-8 months). There were no cases of recurrence. Conclusions: Haemangiomas usually present in children, and can be seen from birth. They have a predilection for females. They are uncommon in the oral cavity. In the oral region, the most common location is the lip. Most congenital haemangioma regress spontaneously without treatment. The treatment of choice is surgical excision of the lesion.

“…Die Wirkung der verschiedenen Laser ist durch eine geringe Eindringtiefe oder Stärke der Begleitreaktionen limitiert [2,15]. Vor allem bei voluminöseren Lippenrandangiomen scheint der Einsatz von höheren Wellenlängen sinnvoll, um eine größere Eindringtiefe und somit eine ausreichend hohe Absorption im Zielsubstrat zu gewährleisten.…”

BACKGROUND: Hemangiomas are benign, self-involuting tumors of endothelial cells that are common in childhood. OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the treatment of 122 patients with skin hemangiomas treated at a teaching hospital in Brasilia, Brazil between March 2000 and December 2006. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Data were collected from the patients' medical records and questionnaires were applied to the children's parents. Variables analyzed were: gender, pre-and perinatal factors, clinical characteristics of the lesions, type of treatment and outcome. RESULTS: A male-to-female ratio of 1.5:1 was found. In 42 patients, hemangiomas were superficial, while in 13 cases they were deep and in 67 patients lesions were mixed. In 7 patients, the lesions were associated with syndromes. In 79 patients, hemangiomas were in the cephalic region. Of the 122 patients, 98 were submitted to one single treatment, while 24 required multiple forms of treatment. In the first group, expectant management was the conduct in 38 patients, compression in 3 cases, systemic corticotherapy in 18 patients, intralesional corticotherapy in 13, topical steroids in 4 cases, conventional surgery in 12 patients, cryosurgery in 7, pulsed light in one case and imiquimod in 2 patients. In the second group of 24 patients submitted to multiple treatment modalities, 15 required two types of treatment and 9 needed three or more. CONCLUSIONS: The data obtained in this study were in agreement with results in the literature with respect to gender and the site of the lesions. The incidence of hemangiomas present at birth was higher than rates published in the literature. The therapeutical results obtained were comparable with data from other published studies. Identification of hemangiomas that require treatment, as well as the right moment for intervention and the best therapeutic option for each case, are factors that need to be taken into consideration.

OBJETIVO: Avaliar os tratamentos utilizados em 122 pacientes com hemangiomas cutâ-neos, tratados no Hospital Universitário de Brasília, de março de 2000 a dezembro de 2006. MÉTODOS: Utilizou-se coleta de dados em prontuários e aplicação de questionários aos pais. Foram analisados gênero, fatores pré-natais e perinatais, características clínicas, tipo de tratamento e resultados. RESULTADOS: A razão de sexo (F: M) foi de 1,5:1. 42, em pacientes que apresentavam hemangiomas superficiais, 13 profundos e 67 mistos; em 7 pacientes, havia associação com síndromes. Em 79 pacientes, localizavam-se no polo cefálico. Já em 98/122 dos pacientes, foram submetidos a tratamento único e 24/122 a múltiplos. No primeiro grupo, foi utilizada conduta expectante em 38 pacientes, compressão em 3, corticoide sistêmico em 18, corticoide intralesional em 13, corticoide tópico em 4, cir...
