ABSTRACT

Objective To explore and evaluate the effect of 32P and pinyangmycin injected in combination for the treatment of maxillofacial hemangioma. Methods The patients were randomly divided into three groups. The first group of patients was treated with 32P; 100 patients were enrolled in this group, of which 37 were male and 63 female. 32P dosage between 0.37 and 0. 74 MBq per cm3 was prepared together with 0.5 ml of 2 %lidocaine, and appropriate normal saline, and then the mixture was injected into hemangioma every two weeks. The second group was given pinyangmycin, and the third group received both 32P and pinyangmycin. The second group included 30 male and 60 female, and the third group 64 male and 136 female. The dose and frequency were given as the same to the first group. Results 88.5 % of patients were cured using both 32P and pinyangmycin, and the cure rate was 77.0 % and 71.7 % with either 32P or pinyangmycin. Conclusion These results prove that 32P and pinyangmycin injected in combination for the treatment of maxillofacial hemangioma is more effective than either 32P or pinyangmycin alone, and furthermore, the method is easy, safe and has less complications.
