As practice shows, every year the number of people with hemangiomas on their bodies increases significantly. Of particular concern to specialists is the fact that the number of children born with this benign tumor is growing significantly, and most of them are girls. Moreover, in each case, the treatment of hemangiomas should be carried out on the basis of an individual approach. Only under this condition can we talk about its effectiveness.
The concept and types of hemangioma
Today, this term is used to denote a benign tumor, which can be caused by both congenital deformity and adverse living conditions or injuries. There are several main types of hemangiomas:
- Mixed. They are several tumor cells at once, which consist of various tissues and vessels.
- Combined. They appear exclusively in clinical conditions and represent a symbiosis of simple and cavernous hemangiomas.
- Simple. As a rule, they have a smooth surface, but in some casesmay protrude slightly above the skin. Only the upper subcutaneous capillaries are affected.
- Cavernous. They have a nodular shape and are located exclusively under the skin. Most common in newborns.
However, it should be understood that almost every person can develop a hemangioma. Treatment methods in each specific situation are different and depend on the type of tumor and the stage of its formation. In any case, when it appears on the body, you should immediately contact a specialist. Only he will be able to prescribe the correct treatment for hemangiomas, which will allow you to get rid of them as quickly and practically painlessly as possible.
Medical removal methods
The specific method of removing this benign tumor directly depends on its location. In addition, do not forget that not all hemangiomas can and should be removed.
Doctors today mostly offer liquid nitrogen cauterization or laser removal. And literally quite recently they used surgical intervention or alcohol sclerosis. However, both of these methods are considered obsolete, and they are far from suitable for every adult, and even more so for a child. That is why laser removal is rightfully the most effective and efficient option. This procedure is practically painless, does not require general anesthesia and takes little time. In any case, a specific treatment for hemangiomas can only be prescribed by a specialist after a comprehensive study.
