Filter by:Infantile hemangioma (IH) is the most common benign vascular tumor in pediatric population. Oral propranolol is the treatment of choice for complicated hemangiomas. Topical timolol, a non-selective beta-blocker, is an emerging treatment which has been reported to be effective and safe for the treatment of IH, especially for superficial hemangiomas. Investigators hypothesize that treatment with topical timolol in the first two months of life, before the proliferative phase or in early proliferative phase, may prevent from further growing and the need to treat with oral propranolol.
The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of oral propranolol versus nadolol in patients with Infantile Hemangiomas (IH) in a randomized, controlled, double-blinded study.
The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy of orally administered propranolol versus atenolol in the treatment of potentially disfiguring or functionally threatening IHs.
Pulsed dye laser (PDL) is the gold standard treatment for port-wine stains (PWS). However, the outcomes are highly variable due to the new angiogenesis occurring after laser irradiation. Studies suggest that endothelin is involved in the neoangiogenesis that occurred after treatment of port-wine stains by PDL. The main objective of this pilot clinical trial is to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of an inhibitor of endothelin orally taken, the Bosentan, following PDL treatment. Four patients with facial port-wine stain resistant to the PDL treatment will be included. The treatment by Bosentan (2 mg/kg twice daily, maximum 62,5 mg twice daily) will be given one day before the PDL irradiation and continued for 14 days. Only one test area of PWS will be treated with PDL. The primary outcome measure will be an important or complete improvement (Investigator Global Assessment 3 or 4) between treated area and non treated one, 14 days after the end of the treatment which corresponds to one month after the laser PDL session. The evaluation will been performed on standardized pictures by 2 independent physicians blinded to the region treated or not.
We plan to conduct a study, to see how safe and effective timolol maleate 0.5% gel-forming solution is for infantile hemangiomas (IH) and the response of hemangiomas to timolol maleate 0.5% . Our hypothesis is that timolol will inhibit and possibly reverse growth of appropriate infantile hemangiomas.
A combined set of quantitative skin imaging methods will quantitatively describe the natural ontogeny and the response to standard treatments over time in patients with infantile hemangiomas.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the pathogenic mechanisms of Port Wine Stain, collect biopsy samples and blood samples to characterize exosomes and metabolites from Port Wine Stain.
Port wine stains Birthmark are congenital, progressive vascular malformations of the skin that occur in approximately 0.7% of newborns. Approximately 1.5 million individuals in the United States and 32 million people worldwide have Port wine stains birthmarks. Two-thirds of these malformations occur on the face. Personality development of virtually all patients is adversely affected as a result of the negative reaction of others to a "marked" person. Detailed studies have documented lower self-esteem and difficulties with interpersonal interactions in Port wine stains patients. Port wine stains are initially flat and red, but with time, they tend to darken to purple and become thickened as vascular nodules develop. This thickening occurs in approximately two-thirds of lesions and further disfigures the facial features of many patients.
Port wine stain Birthmark is a congenital, progressive vascular malformation of human skin. However, even though the pulsed dye laser is considered as the treatment of choice for Port wine stain Birthmark the degree of fading can remain variable and unpredictable after laser treatment.
Port-wine stain is a congenital, progressive vascular malformation of human skin involving post-capillary venules that occurs in an estimated 0.3% of children and can alter personality development and psychological in children.
