Clinical Differences Infantile Hemangioma Vascular Malformation • Small (flat) or absent at birth
• Rapid growth during infancy
• Involution during childhood
• Clinically apparent at young age
• Present at birth
• Never proliferates-Never involute
• Growth proportional to child
• Variable age at presentation

Infantile Hemangiomas
xxx00.#####.ppt 2/1/16 10:13 AM
Hemangiomas • Most common tumor of childhood • Incidence 4-10% • Female (2-3:1), white, premature, low birth weight, multiple
gestation • Variable appearance • Characteristic growth pattern

Involution • Historic report – 50% by 5 years – 70% by 7 years – 90% by 9 years
• 10% persist
xxx00.#####.ppt 2/1/16 10:13 AM
Diagnosis • Based largely on clinical presentation
• Ultrasound or MRI in select cases – To validate clinical diagnosis – Evaluate extent of disease
• Biopsy is rare but recommended for atypical clinical or radiological presentation – GLUT-1 (North et al., 2003)

Observation vs. Intervention
1. Many hemangiomas persist beyond 9 years 2. Age of self-recognition/concept 4-5 years 3. Large/protruberent hemangiomas leave fibrofatty residuum 4. Scarring/telangiectasias are common 5. Majority occur in aesthetically sensitive areas
Keeping it in perspective…
xxx00.#####.ppt 2/1/16 10:13 AM
Observation
• Superficial lesions in cosmetically and functionally insensitive areas – Away from the head and neck – Small cervical-facial lesions
• Deep hemangiomas without functional or cosmetic impact
• Important to give them a chance

Conclusions • Head and neck vascular anomalies are often complex lesions in
functionally/cosmetically concerning areas • Multimodality therapy is often needed for disease control • Laser therapy provides disease control with low morbidity in certain
lesions • Multidisciplinary management is frequently needed
