    Abstract:
    A newborn girl with a haemangioma of the liver failed to respond to cortico-steroid therapy. Ultrasonic evidence of the haemangioma disappeared after 2 months of treatment with propranolol. Propranolol, a non-selective beta-blocker, is a promising therapy in the management of haemangiomas.
