Abstract :

Haemangioma is the most ordinary benign tumour of vascular origin, occurring most frequently in newborns and during infancy and childhood, although some cases develop in adults. We performed sclerotherapy of haemangioma and vascular malformations on 10 patients having size of lesion less than 5 cm. The symptoms and vascularity of lesion was significantly reduced after three sessions of sclerotherapy in all 10 cases. Sclerotherapy of haemangioma is a relatively simple, effective and inexpensive method that is a valuable and promising treatment.
