Results from tattooing port-wine hemangiomas. A long-term follow-up.

Nineteen patients who had completed their course of dermatattoo treatment for the camouflage of port-wine hemangioma were evaluated at an average of 3.1 years following completion of treatment. A panel of 7 people evaluated preoperative and postoperative photographs and judged that none of the patients were more than "50 percent improved" in the camouflaging of their hemangioma, and that most of them (15 out of 19) were either "not improved" or "25 percent improved," as compared to their original photographs. We cannot rule out the possibility that this treatment may be effective in adults, as all of our patients at the time of their first treatment were between the ages of 4 and 20 years; and most of them were between 6 and 10 years old. On the basis of this evaluation, we no longer recommend the technique of dermatattoo for camouflage of port-wine hemangioma in patients in the younger age group.
