简要总结
Current treatment options for hemangiomas, such as propranolol, steroids and interferon, all have the potential for significantly harmful side effects. The purpose of this study is to identify potential biomarkers that can be used to design clinical trials and accelerate the delivery of new treatment alternatives to children with hemangiomas.
详细描述
Urine will be collected from children with hemangiomas and age-matched healthy controls at 2,4,6,9,12,18 and 24 months of age. Children with hemangiomas will also have ultrasound examination performed at each visit.
