Nevus flammeus
Nevus flammeus
Also known asgrapesWine blue ubber-bleb nevus or capillary expansion mole, was born in good hair to the face, neck, unilateral, mostly it is occasionally bilateral, sometimes involving the mucous membrane.Early damage for different sizes or more reddish, dark red or purple spots, irregular shape, border and clear, not higher than leather, visible capillary expansion, pressure of partial or total fading, the surface smooth.As I grow in age, color burn red, purple, lesions in 40% of patients will gradually expand, appears before the age of 40 can be thickening and nodules, excessive bleeding after trauma.Nevus flammeus are countless expansion of micro vein after a little flat and uplift of plaque, belongs to the micro vein after congenital malformation.Lesion area increases with the body growth and corresponding, never fade.
Nevus flammeus can occur in any part, but to face and neck, 75% - 80%, unilateral and more to the right.Nevus flammeus involving ophthalmic and maxillary nerve at the same time have a 15% chance to combine the refractory glaucoma.In patients with nevus flammeus, 1% - 2% of pia mater with ipsilateral vascular malformation, called Sturge Weber syndrome.
Due to damage to parts of the deep reach derma layer, conventional treatment methods (such as frozen treatment, high frequency electric, common CO2 laser treatment, isotope treatment, etc.) makes it difficult to remove.Or legacy scar easily.
Pulsed dye laser emitted is dedicated to the treatment of nevus flammeus green laser can be very smoothly through the lesions on the skin into the lesions, vascular lesions area within the hemoglobin completely under strong laser coagulation, the solidification of the abnormal hemoglobin blood vessels are closed, the pathological changes of blood vessels inside the nevus flammeus disappear, to be cured.Because the laser is almost not damage the skin, so it is not easy to leave scar, after treatment can completely restore the skin color, due to the damage to blood vessels under the skin in the three-dimensional distribution of each laser treatment can remove part of the blood vessels, the other will happen a few vessels after treatment phenomenon, so treatment often need points for many times.The time interval of each treatment need more than two months, while fuel pulse laser can treat Ban red birthmark, but its treatment effect is still poor.Only about 30% of the patients can be cured, only 70% of the patients is effective.
Treatment area after treatment can produce different degree of skin edema, exudation scabby, a few small blisters, may occur within a week as long as cooperate with doctor's treatment, these reactions will subside in a week (individual patients may be pigment calm, usually in a few months to disappear, no special treatment)
The dangers of nevus flammeus
Nevus flammeus early mainly affects the patient's appearance, the late may to tumor development, including a handful of patients with epilepsy, thrombocytopenia, bones become bigger.Nevus flammeus was unable to prevent, but there are some signs that can be used to test the master and other anomalies.If two-thirds nevus flammeus long on the face, be careful eye disorders, and abnormalities in nerve;If in the long arms and legs, the experience of hypertrophy, pay attention to the observation of bones, muscles, etc;Be careful on the back and in the mid-line, whether there are abnormal in the spinal cord blood vessels.
Nevus flammeus genetic problems
Now there are a lot of expectant mothers or to make the patients with nevus flammeus mother is very concerned about this problem, worry nevus flammeus will likely genetic, nevus flammeus cannot rule out the possibility of genetic, but the chance is very small, clinical is also very rare, also does not have the exact data nevus flammeus will be genetic.According to the study, the etiology of nevus flammeus and hormones in the body, and genetic is not big, and our consciousness and the ecological environment has great relationship.Many foods contain a lot of hormone on the market, so you should eat more ecological food, to maintain hormonal balance.
Treatment time
Nevus flammeus is a common congenital, low blood flow within the dermis vascular malformation, born with more, very few regress.So children's family is very concerned about how to cure nevus flammeus, what time is the best treatment time.Because if in the best time to take treatment, can improve the effect of treatment, both save time and save money, but also can reduce the pain of the child.When take the traditional treatment, there is a seasonal variation, the choice of in order to prevent wound infection, usually selected in the spring and autumn and cool in the treatment of nevus flammeus.And now have a workstation with double wavelengths, there would be no wound treatment of hemangioma, don't worry about the infection, the choice of season there would be no effect.Nevus flammeus will not disappear automatically by time, seriously affect the image of the patient.Hemangioma, therefore, the earlier treatment begins, the better, to prevent the growth of affected patients, the early treatment to cure the better the results.
Nevus flammeus clinical common characteristics
General common for nevus flammeus,
First, nevus flammeus was originally sizes reddish, dark red or purple spots, visible capillary expansion, smooth surface, the press would fade, old age will continue to expand, 65% of patients will expand, appears before the age of 40 can be thickening or nodules, easy bleeding after trauma.Nevus flammeus are countless expansion of capillaries is relatively flat plaque, lesion area with the increase of body growth and corresponding, will not for life.
Second, nevus flammeus can happen any parts, in the majority with facial, it also affects the ophthalmic and maxillary nerve, can cause glaucoma, 15% 1% to 2% of patients with ipsilateral soft meningeal vascular malformation, called Sturge Weber syndrome.
Third, nevus flammeus is a common phenomenon of skin lesions, now more patients, patients with nevus flammeus with age increasing.
Fourth, also known as wine nevus flammeus blue ubber-bleb nevus or capillary expansion mole, often appears at or shortly after birth, found in the neck, head, the first part, more for unilateral, is rare bilateral, sometimes involving the mucous membrane.
The treatment of nevus flammeus
Nevus flammeus to patients on the study, life and work has brought great inconvenience and pain, especially in infants and young children patients, parents want to find the best treatment for children, hope to maximum degree of cure nevus flammeus.Nevus flammeus one of the best ways to treat it that can look from two aspects, one is currently the most advanced treatment method, the other is the best treatment for the patients.Each patient's situation is different, so do the same treatment effects are also different.In China at present, our hospital has the most advanced therapy in the treatment of hemangioma of the "three dimensional melts for elimination technology".It is against all sorts of hemangioma are more effective treatments."Three-dimensional melt technology" is the Beijing economy combined with the United States imported a full set of equipment Cynergy hemangioma hospital experts workstation is developed for the treatment of hemangioma."3 d melting technology" through the selective principle of field, make the blood coagulation necrosis, which is absorbed by the system, along with the lymph circulation.It makes white blood of eggs moment solidification methemoglobin formation, so as to control the development of hemangioma, to achieve the effect of cure."3 d melt for elimination technology" no pain, no trauma treatment of hemangioma, no scar and no side effects, no recurrence, is many hospitals in the treatment of hemangioma cannot reach.
Nevus flammeus syndrome
Lead nevus flammeus always syndrome for the following seven categories:
1, based on a facial capillaries expansion is characterized with brain calcification of nevus flammeus.Often to occur in the trigeminal nerve first supply the original skin blood capillary deformity.Ipsilateral dura capillary deformity with calcification and cortical atrophy.
2, nevus flammeus with three characteristics:
1) nevus capillaries expansion deformation;
(2) varicose veins;
(3) soft tissue and bone hyperplasia.
3, a nevus flammeus genetic diseases for the advantage of autosomal disease, it is composed of retinal vascular malformation and benign vascular vasodilation abnormal.In addition can be accompanied by a pheochromocytoma, adrenal tumor, pancreas and kidney cyst.
4, make the spirit and behavior degradation of nevus flammeus, thumb and orbital distance broadening, the growth disorder, microcephaly, visual abnormalities.
5, abdominal wall closure is not complete, umbilical hernia and rectum separation, big guts, giant sign, overage bone, small head, asymmetry, gonad, muscle hypertrophy, diaphragmatic anomalies.
6, a rare nevus flammeus, patients with single skin and meninges vascular malformation.
7, a benign capillaries expansion in the face, chest, joints and nail bed.
