observation ("watchful waiting"), treatment with steroids during the proliferation stage to shrink the tumor and speed the involution process, and laser surgery techniques
Aftercare for a hemangioma excision involves wound care and maintenance such as changing of bandages
Hemangioma excision is the use of surgical techniques to remove benign tumors made up of blood vessels that are often located within the skin.
the excision surgery can be done on an outpatient or inpatient basis. For very small lesions, local anesthetic may be sufficient, but for the great majority, general anesthesia is necessary
The most commonly used technique for small lesions is very straightforward and involves removing the abnormal vascular tissue with a lenticular, or lens-shaped excision, that results in a linear scar.
The procedure is generally performed by plastic surgeons and, except for extremely small lesions, is done on an inpatient basis in a hospital operating room .
Completely normal appearance after surgery is very rare. However, for significantly disfiguring tumors or those that impact physical function
Alternatives to aspiration and excision in the treatment of ganglion cysts include watchful waiting and resting the affected hand or foot
Morbidity and mortality resulting from this surgery is close to zero, particularly because of the new surgical techniques and tools that prevent intra-operative bleeding of the tumor.
bleeding during the operation, as these tumors are comprised of abnormal blood vessels. Surgeons often utilize special surgical tools to reduce this risk, including thermoscalpels
Laser treatment and Loop electrocautery excision procedure (LEEP).
Hemangioma is pronounced heh-man-jee-OH-mah.
The most common testing for diagnosis of hemangioma which is the abnormal buildup of blood vessels is typically done with an ultrasound. Some hemangioma can be visually detected.
