BENEFITS OF CONTACT AND NONCONTACT YAG LASER FOR PERIORBITAL HEMANGIOMAS ANNALS OF PLASTIC SURGERY Apfelberg, D. B., MASER, M. R., WHITE, D. N., Lash, H., Lane, B., Marks, M. P. 1990; 24 (5): 397-408Abstract
Twenty patients with capillary/cavernous hemangiomas of the periorbital area (eyelid, eyebrow, nose extending to canthus) have been treated with a variety of techniques. Six patients were treated by yttrium-aluminum-garnet (YAG) laser photocoagulation and direct injection of steroids. Rapid shrinkage of the hemangiomas occurred in all patients, and 2 infants whose eye was totally occluded by the hemangioma had their eyes rapidly opened. YAG laser excision with or without previous photocoagulation plus injection and with arteriogram plus superselective embolization was performed in the other 14 patients. Results were satisfactory in all patients.
