Abstract
Infantile hemangiomas (IH) are the most frequent tumors of vascular origin. The differential diagnosis with other vascular anomalies is difficult to establish and an appropriate therapeutic management is usually delayed by the underestimation of the importance of the lesion. Problematic types of hemangiomas due to location, size and fast proliferation can determine important functional and esthetic sequelae. Based on the data collected by serial clinical observation and imaging, processed by a computer-assisted diagnosis system (CAD), we studied the evolution of different types of vascular tumors, divided into three groups, according to the treatment method implemented. The database consists of 94 patients. The results show the importance of serial clinical evaluation over a long period and of the early implementation of the treatment for the dangerous hemangiomas. A multidisciplinary medical team is essential for the best outcome of the vascular tumor pathology.
