Is hemangioma in children easy to treat?
The treatment of hemangiomas is relatively simple, involving surgical removal, with generally good prognosis. Hemangiomas in children can be categorized into two types: true hemangiomas and vascular malformations. True hemangiomas include a rapid growth phase, a rest phase, and an involution phase. Therefore, if a child has a true hemangioma, it is possible that it will regress naturally, and parents do not need to be overly anxious about treatment. The second type is vascular malformations, which do not have a clear proliferative phase, resting phase, or regression phase, and usually exist from birth. If not treated, it is very likely to persist throughout life; however, it can be treated with surgery and the use of sclerosing agents among other methods.
