II. Epidemiology
- Prevalence: 1.1 - 2.6% of all newborns (10% of infants at one year)
- More common in Premature Infants
III. Signs
- Often lesion not present at birth or barely noticeable pale patch of skin
- Erythematous or violaceous lobulated lesions
IV. Differential Diagnosis
- Thrombocytopenia
- Cardiac failure
- Cutaneous Signs of Spinal Dysraphism (e.g. sacral Hemangioma)
V. Associated Conditions
- Kasabach-Merritt Syndrome
- Tethered cord with lumbosacral lesions
VI. Course
- Develops in first four weeks after birth
- Proliferates until 9 to 12 months of age
- Spontaneous Resolution
- Age 5 years: 50% resolution
- Age 7 years: 70% resolution
- Age 9 years: 90% resolution
- Residual atrophy, Hypopigmentation, telangiectases, or scarring may occur
VII. Management: Interventions by Pediatric Dermatology
- Compression garment or Coban Tape
- Hemangiomas on arms or legs
- Biosynthetic dresing every 24 hours
-
Prednisone
- Indicated where Hemangioma compresses eye, airway or other vital conditions
- Dose: 3 mg/kg daily for 6-12 weeks
- Continue until lesion stops growing or size decreases
- Interferon alfa (if refractory to Steroids)
- Pulsed-dye laser therapy
VIII. Management: Indications for referral or further evaluation
- Multiple Hemangiomas
- Consider Ultrasound of the Abdomen to evaluate for gastrointestinal and Liver Lesions
- Deep Hemangiomas
- Large Hemangiomas
- Risk of high-output Heart Failure
- Sacral Hemangiomas
- Airway Hemangioma
- May present with Stridor
- Airway Hemangiomas tend to enlarge through the first year of life

Ontology: Strawberry nevus of skin (C0206733)
| Definition (NCI) | A capillary hemangioma that may regress spontaneously. It occurs in infants and children. |
| Definition (MSH) | A dull red, firm, dome-shaped hemangioma, sharply demarcated from surrounding skin, usually located on the head and neck, which grows rapidly and generally undergoes regression and involution without scarring. It is caused by proliferation of immature capillary vessels in active stroma, and is usually present at birth or occurs within the first two or three months of life. (Dorland, 27th ed) |
