How long does it take for neonatal hemangioma to disappear?

Infantile hemangioma rarely disappears. It needs to be determined based on the type of hemangioma and histological characteristics and clinical manifestations. Neonatal hemangioma has Different types, such as port wine stain, capillary hemangioma, cavernous hemangioma and mixed hemangioma, each type of hemangioma has different regression time and whether it regresses. Hemangiomas are benign tumors that will only continue to grow and rarely disappear on their own. Some capillary hemangiomas and cavernous hemangiomas can regress on their own, but pendrous hemangioma cannot regress on their own. Most port-wine stains can disappear on their own. Large or extensive ones often persist for life. Hemangiomas that recede on their own can generally disappear before the age of three. Some may take 5 to 10 years. Those that cannot disappear on their own need to be detected early. , early treatment can achieve ideal therapeutic effects.

Hemangiomas commonly occur in the head and neck, trunk and limbs, and in a small number of children, hemangiomas occur in internal organs, such as the liver and gastrointestinal tract. Depending on the child's condition, the disease can be treated with surgical resection or laser treatment, both of which have significant curative effects and have a good prognosis. Generally, the earlier hemangioma is treated, the better the effect, but the optimal treatment time depends on the child's health status and physical strength.

Neonatal hemangioma usually needs to be seen by plastic surgery or vascular surgery. Hemangioma is mainly formed by the proliferation of embryonic hemangioblasts. A congenital benign tumor or vascular malformation. Its clinical manifestations are mainly divided into capillary hemangioma, cavernous hemangioma and vine hemangioma. Among them, cavernous hemangioma is more harmful because it can invade surrounding tissues and cause ulcers. Severe bleeding or infection occurs. Although hemangiomas are benign tumors, some pediatric hemangiomas can still threaten the lives of children, so they should be treated as soon as possible. The main treatment methods include surgery and laser treatment. Once a hemangioma is diagnosed, professional treatment is required because its prognosis is relatively good.
