The best treatment for infantile hemangioma
Treatment 1: the most common method of early treatment is oral corticosteroids. If the disease is treated at the right time, it can slow down the growth of hemangioma and promote the final regression. The key to achieving good results is to start treatment at the youngest possible age. Oral administration of corticosteroids is most effective at the stage of rapid growth of hemangioma.
Treatment 2: Patients with larger hemangioma. If the tumor grows rapidly and is located in the porta hepatis, surgery is the best choice. If the growth rate of the tumor is very slow, or even the tumor does not continue to grow, we can continue to observe and follow up. In addition, we should also consider the patient's general situation and the patient's own wishes. We should neither refuse the patient's reasonable surgical requirements, nor force the patient to accept surgical treatment.
Treatment 3: malignant tumor cannot be excluded. Although most hemangiomas are typical, some are not. Some of them were accompanied with elevated alpha fetoprotein (AFP) and some with cirrhosis. For this kind of atypical, especially for those who can't rule out malignant tumor, "observation" is not the best policy, so surgical resection should be chosen decisively.
