Compression treatment of hemangiomas

S H Miller, R L Smith, S J Shochat

    Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery
    |November 1, 1976
    PubMed
    Summary

    Compression therapy is a safe and effective treatment for hemangiomas. It may help involuting hemangiomas resolve sooner and temporarily reduce the size of non-involuting hemangiomas.

    Area of Science:

    • Dermatology
    • Vascular Medicine

    Background:

    • Hemangiomas are common vascular tumors in infants.
    • Treatment options for hemangiomas vary depending on type and stage.

    Observation:

    • This study evaluated compression therapy for both involuting and non-involuting hemangiomas.
    • The safety and efficacy of compression were assessed.

    Findings:

    • Compression therapy demonstrated safety and effectiveness in treating hemangiomas.
    • For involuting hemangiomas, compression may promote earlier mature resolution.
    • For non-involuting hemangiomas, compression may lead to temporary size reduction.

    Implications:

    • Compression therapy offers a promising non-invasive approach for hemangioma management.
    • Further research may explore optimal compression protocols and long-term outcomes.
