Risk Stratification and Treatment Decisions in Infantile Hemangioma With Minimal or Arrested Growth

Sponsor: West China Hospital

View on ClinicalTrials.gov

Summary

Infantile hemangioma with minimal or arrested growth (IH-MAG) is a subtype of infantile hemangioma that shows little or no obvious growth during infancy. Although these lesions may appear less active than classic infantile hemangiomas, some may still be associated with ulceration, functional risk, permanent disfigurement, or structural anomalies. This prospective observational cohort study will compare infants with IH-MAG and infants with classic infantile hemangioma at their first specialist evaluation. Each participant will undergo routine clinical assessment, standardized photography, risk classification according to the 2019 American Academy of Pediatrics guideline, and Hemangioma Severity Scale scoring. The main outcome is the initial management recommendation after specialist assessment, categorized as active management or treatment versus observation. The study will not assign any treatment. All management recommendations will be made by clinicians according to routine clinical practice and guideline-based assessment.
