Abstract

Immature haemangiomas affect only infants and children and follow a peculiar course: first an expansion phase, then an involution phase which ends in complete cure in the majority of cases. Because of this favorable outcome, all inopportune treatments must be avoided, and abstention is the best attitude. However, early corticosteroid therapy must be prescribed when the lesion is located in a dangerous area, such as the eyelids or the lips. Specific treatments must be instituted only in very special cases, such as visceral or giant cutaneous haemangiomas or Kasabach-Merritt syndrome.
