Role of steroid in childhood haemangioma: a 10 years review

A N Gangopadhyay et al. Int Surg. 1997 Jan-Mar.

Abstract

1195 cases of various type of haemangioma were treated with various steroid modalities. The response to intralesional steroids was excellent in strawberry and mixed haemangiomas. The response to oral steroids was also good in these two types. The response of cavernous variety was poor with either modality used alone but with combined modality, a moderate response can be obtained.
