If my child has a hemangioma, what are the indications for an operation and when?
There are a few important and clear-cut indications for surgical intervention. If a hemangioma obstructs an important structure of the face, such as the eye, nose, or mouth, this is a clear indication for surgical removal. If a hemangioma is large and protuberant and is going to leave a permanent skin deformity, this is a relative indication for surgical removal.
