Filter by:Objective: This study is intended to compare the outcome of intralesional bleomycin with dexamethasone versus the bleomycin alone in infantile haemangioma. Materials and Methods: This RCT was performed after the ethical approval at the pediatric surgery department of KEMU/Mayo hospital Lahore. 114 patients were enrolled in two groups A and B. Both groups contained 57 patients each. Group A was administered intralesional bleomycin with dexamethasone and group B was given intralesional bleomycin alone with a space of 4 weeks. Selection of patients was made according to inclusions and exclusion criteria.
Infantile hemangiomas are widespread vascular tumours having incidence of 10% and most of them involute spontaneously. However, they are known to be located in proximity of vital organs and can have poor cosmetic and functional sequel if left untreated. A wide range of treatment options are available from expectant therapy to radical surgical excision. Propanolol has also been shown to be effective in treating infantile cutaneous hemangiomas. Similarly, anti-metabolite drugs as bleomycin has also shown promising results. Efficacy in terms of reduction in size of both treatments has been scarcely studied especially in Pakistan. OBJECTIVE: To assess the efficacy of oral propranolol and intraleisonal bleomycin in the treatment of infantile cutaneous hemangioma in terms of size regression
Infantile hemangioma (IH) is the most common vascular tumor of infancy, characterized by its clinical history. Absent at birth or present under the form of a premonitory mark, they display a rapid proliferative phase starting in the first weeks of life. Then, after a plateau phase, they slowly involute. However, a subtype of IH named "abortive", "minimal or arrested growth", "reticular" or "telangiectatic" hemangioma differs from typical IH because it doesn't have a proliferative component, or only a minimal one. This subtype of hemangioma has been recently described and data are lacking regarding its proportion among infantile hemangioma and its differences with "classic" infantile hemangioma. The aim of this study is to estimate the proportion of abortive hemangioma among infantile hemangioma. Also, the investigators aim to compare the clinical characteristics of "classic" infantile hemangiomas and abortive hemangiomas. Lastly, investigators wished to study the evolution of abortive hemangioma.
The study aimed to retrospectively review cases of brain arteriovenous malformation that were surgical resected with the patient awake during the procedure.
The purpose of this research is to gather information on the safety and effectiveness of core biopsy of vascular anomalies for clinical pathology and clinical genomics studies.
Hepatic hemangiomas are the commonest benign mesenchymal lesions of the liver. Most of these lesions are asymptomatic. Giant hepatic hemangiomas (GHH) (> 10 cm) are often symptomatic and require surgical intervention. This study aimed to describe the clinical findings, risk factors, diagnostic approach and management of GHH.
Operations performed for liver hemangioma between January 2017 and December 2018 will be retrospectively analyzed.
This is retrospective study. The patients treated with oral propranolol at a dose of 2.0 mg/kg per day. Growth parameters (height and weight) were measured at the beginning, the end of treatment and 2 years after treatment. The weight-for-age Z-score (WAZ), height-for-age Z-score (HAZ) and weight-for-height Z-score (WHZ) calculated by the WHO Anthro software were used to assess physical development, and the WHO Child Growth Standards were used as the standards.
The study aims to quantitative evaluation of parafoveal microvasculature changes in eyes with exudative circumscribed choroidal haemangioma using optical coherence tomography angiography.
The purpose of this study is to compare the use of the Micro Vascular Plug (MVP) system and other embolic devices in treatment of PAVMs. Pulmonary Arteriovenous Malformations (PAVMs) are abnormal connections between the pulmonary vein and the pulmonary artery. This affects blood flow between the heart and lungs which puts patients at risk of stroke, brain abscess, hypoxia and even sudden death. The standard treatment of PAVMs is embolization. Embolization is the placing of an embolic (synthetic agent) into a blood vessel to block blood flow. The embolic is inserted via a catheter into the blood vessel. Detachable coils are the most commonly used embolic in the treatment of PAVMs. Despite long procedure times, numerous coils that are often required to occlude a single PAVM and recanalization rates ranging from 5% to 15%, the most widely used embolic device is still the detachable coil.
