Twenty-five children with eyelid haemangiomas were reviewed. Fifteen patients with enlarging lesions thought to be at risk of causing amblyopia were treated with intralesional steroids as soon after presentation as possible. This appeared to reduce significantly the incidence of amblyopia. Surgery was reserved for older children in whom no further involution of the lesion was expected.

Vascular anomalies are broadly classified into 2 categories: vascular tumors and vascular malformations. Vascular anomalies frequently present as cutaneous lesions in infants. This review summarizes vascular anomalies that most commonly present as dermatologic lesions in the neonatal period, with a focus on the clinical findings, pathophysiology and histology, relevant radiographic findings, and management of common vascular anomalies such as infantile hemangiomas, congenital hemangiomas, and Kaposiform hemangioendothelioma, along with vascular malformations, including capillary, lymphatic, venous, and arteriovenous malformations.

Nasal and paranasal sinus masses can arise from a wide range of conditions, both benign and malignant, as well as congenital or acquired. Diagnosing these masses is often challenging, requiring a combination of nasal endoscopy, imaging studies, and histopathological analysis. Initial imaging frequently involves computed tomography or cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) to evaluate the bony anatomy of the nasal cavity and surrounding sinuses, while magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is typically used for detailed assessment of soft tissues and to aid in differential diagnosis when the findings are inconclusive.

Hemangiomas are benign congenital vascular tumors that commonly arise in the head and neck regions. Although they present with indolent growth and involution in most cases, they can cause facial deformities. Hemangiomas have three subtypes: capillary, cavernous, and mixed.
