“…A neodymium:Yttrium-aluminum-garnet (Nd:YAG) laser has also been used occasionally for treating IHs with a prominent deep component[31,41,42]. However, the challenge of the Nd:YAG laser for the treatment of vascular lesions is the narrow therapeutic window.…”

BACKGROUND We have previously proved that treatment of thick/deep infantile hemangiomas (IHs) with a long-pulse Alexandrite laser was clinically effective and safe. This article aims to investigate the efficiency of long-pulse Alexandrite laser use in treating thick and high-risk IHs located in particular anatomic areas and provides some new data on this issue. CASE SUMMARY A two-month-old girl with a thick and high-risk IH covering most of the right labia majora was examined in this study. The infant received four treatment sessions at 4- to 6-wk intervals with a long-pulse Alexandrite laser with settings as follows: 3 ms pulse duration, 8 mm spot size, 45 to 50 J/cm 2 fluences, and dynamic cooling device (DCD) spray duration of 90 ms with a delay of 80 ms. Following each of the four treatment sessions, the IH showed a remarkable reduction in thickness and size without any sign of relapse. Ten months after the last treatment, the IH had completely regressed without adverse effects. During the laser treatment, no severe side effects were observed; blistering occurred only immediately after treatment and then scabbed over the next day, gradually improving in the following days. CONCLUSION Long-pulse Alexandrite laser treatment may be considered one of the first-line noninvasive therapeutic options for the treatment of thick IH.

“…As it penetrates deeper (5-6 mm) than PDL (0.75-1 mm), it is indicated in the treatment of deep or mixed hemangiomas, especially with the combination of both types of lasers [69,70]. The main disadvantage is the pain experienced during the laser session, which may require the use of general or local anesthesia [70][71][72].…”

Infantile hemangiomas are the most common benign vascular tumors in infancy. This review includes an update on the current knowledge on pathogenesis, a discussion on indications for treatment, and a review of the mechanisms underlying the different treatment methods. Although most infantile hemangiomas require only active observation because of their natural course, which results in involution, about 10% present with complications that require immediate treatment. The basic treatment includes systemic and topical options. In cases of insufficient response or rebound growth, other forms of treatment should be considered. In some cases, combined therapy might be initiated.

“…laser-argon, Nd-YAG laser, CO 2 laser, fractionate photothermolisis or dye-pulsed laser [ 14 ]. Both types can present with disfiguring side effects, such as disfiguring scars, or ulceration [ 37 , 38 ]. Laser therapy can also be used for residual hemangiomas with fibro-fatty tissue remnants [ 38 ].…”

Infantile hemangiomas as frequent infancy tumors have been a controversial issue of medical scientists worldwide. Their clinical aspects are various and their physiopathology is yet to be fully understood. Numerous publications outline the characteristics, causes, evolution possibilities and therapeutic approaches. Deciding whether to treat or not is the main question of this kind of pathology. Hemangiomas that have complications or can cause irreversible damage need therapy. This is a brief review of up-to-date information regarding the presentation of infantile hemangiomas and target-therapies.

Hemangiomas infantiles tratados con aplicación secuencial de láser de colorante pulsado y Nd:YAG: estudio retrospectivo

Abstract: We believe that treatment with dual-wavelength light from a pulsed dye laser and a Nd:YAG laser is a viable treatment option for infantile hemangiomas when first-line therapies are ineffective or contraindicated.
