  • Title: Combined treatment of a proliferative peri-orbital haemangioma with a tuneable dye laser and intra-lesional steroids to prevent deprivation amblyopia.
    Author: Gorst CM, Munnoch DA, Hancock K.
    Journal: J R Coll Surg Edinb; 2001 Aug; 46(4):234-6. PubMed ID: 11523716.
    Abstract:
    Rapidly proliferating haemangiomas of the face may obscure vision with the development of deprivation amblyopia. Early intervention is required to prevent complications. We present a case successfully treated with a combination of pulsed dye laser and intralesional steroid injection. The current management of haemangiomas is reviewed.
