Multidisciplinary approach to treat a large involuted haemangioma.
Haemangiomas are common benign vascular tumours but extensive ones are rare. Such large haemangiomas require treatment but important sequelae persist even after complete regression. We report the case of a young girl who presented with cosmetically disturbing sequelae after complete regression of a large haemangioma of the face. She referred to our multidisciplinary team to improve her facial appearance.
