[Copper needle puncturing for the treatment of cavernous hemangioma].
From the beginning of 1990 to Oct. 1993, we have treated 31 patients with cavernous hemangioma using copper needle puncturing. Three months' to one and half years' follow-up showed positive effects in all cases. The paper describes general and local reaction of the treatment, the changes in blood copper concentration and echocardiography and complications.
