Özet
Hemangiomas are benign vascular lesions that can occur in any part of the body. Their etiology is controversial. Hemangiomas are self-limited and usually resolve spontaneously, therefore conservative treatment is generally recommended. However, genital hemangiomas may require surgical treatment if they become symptomatic. Intralesional steroid treatment is a simple and effective treatment with minimal side effects. Herein we report a 6 months old baby who presented to our clinic with hemangioma of scrotum. Copyright © 2013 by Türkiye Klinikleri.
