Propranolol for treatment of infantile hemangiomas
A 2-month-old girl born at 33 weeks was referred for treatment of a large facial\nhemangioma, with total occlusion of the left eye (). Ophthalmological examination revealed no abnormalities, and\npropranolol was introduced at this age. The lesion reduced in size and had largely\nhealed in 2 months (). She received\npropranolol until 1 year and 9 months of age, and 8 months later she remains free of\nthe hemangioma, with only a few residual telangiectasias ().
