Search for: [Abstract = "anolol in the treatment of infantile hemangiomas results in a higher proportion of children with early positive response than the use of corticosteroids. Also, the propranolol therapy makes it possible to achieve a greater degree of hemangioma involution at the end of the treatment. In addition, infantile hemangiomas located in the region of the head treated with propranolol show a greater degree of involution compared to tumors located in other areas of the body. Regardless of the drug being used, there was no relationship between early response to treatment or the degree of disappearance of infantile hemangiomas after the pharmacological therapy and the type of the hemangioma, the age of the child at the beginning of treatment, the child's sex and the birth weight, the duration of pregnancy, the number of points in APGAR scale, the number of successive pregnancies and the type of delivery.
