Figures Figure 1a. A cutaneous or superficial hemangioma located on the forehead. Figure 1b. A subcutaneous or deep hemangioma located over the nasal bridge and glabella. Figure 1c. A compound or combined hemangioma consists of a hemangioma that has a cutaneous component and and subcutaneous component. Figure 1d. A field hemangioma located on the neck. The individual lesions will proliferate and grow into a single lesion unless treatment is undertaken. Figure 2. Four hemangiomas can be seen on the trunk in a patient with multiple hemangiomas without visceral involvement. Figure 3. Early red macule representing an early hemangioma. The lesion would later grow rapidly. Figure 4. The white patches indicate that this hemangioma, located on the arm, is involuting. Figure 5. A teen-age patient that has residual telangiectasia, scarring, and cartilage deformity of her ear after involution of a hemangioma. Figure 6. A small hemangioma that has caused significant visual disturbance. Figure 7. A well developed lumbosacral hemangioma that may signify underlying anatomic abnormalities. Figure 8a. A prominent nasal tumor. Figure 8b. A CT scan shows a well circumscribed lesion consistent with hemangioma. Borderline malignant or malignant tumors are frequently not well circumscribed. Figure 9. Treatment is indicated for a hemangioma that completely blocks the external auditory canal. Figure 10. A CT scan shows numerous lesions consistent with hepatic hemangiomas. Figure 11. A hemangioma that covers almost half of the face of a child. Figure 12a. Multiple small cutaneous hemangiomas Figure 12b. After one treatment with the pulsed dye laser the hemangiomas are cleared. Figure 13a A cutaneous hemangioma on the forehead Figure 13b. At age 13 the patient presents with telangiectasia after natural involution. Figure 13c. After one treatment with the pulsed dye laser the telangiectasia is cleared. |
