Question
Last week, during a full-body examination, I discovered I have a hemangioma. What are the treatment methods for hemangiomas?
Answer
The main treatment methods for hemangiomas include two approaches. The first is interventional embolization, which involves inserting a catheter through the femoral artery into the hemangioma and using microsphere embolic agents to completely embolize the blood vessels of the liver hemangioma to achieve complete ischemia. The second is tumor ablation therapy, which utilizes the principle that tumor cells die and coagulate under high-temperature conditions, turning the liver hemangioma into complete necrotic carbon and coagulated necrotic lesions. Both methods aim to effectively treat hemangiomas, but the specific choice of method depends on the patient’s individual condition and the doctor’s advice.
