ABSTRACT
Infantile hemangioma is a self-resolving benign tumor that commonly requires no intervention. Despite its distinctive, self-limiting course, infantile hemangiomas may result in ulcerations that cause pain, potential scarring, bleeding, and infection. Active treatment is usually required to manage these lesions. The discovery of propranolol in the treatment of infantile hemangioma was described in 2008 by Leaute-Labreze, et al. Since then, its effectiveness and safety have been confirmed by several cases, and replacing systemic corticosteroids as a first-line therapy. Herein, we report the successful treatment of children with ulcerated perianal infantile hemangioma with propranolol.
