Tacrolimus for the Treatment of Superficial Kaposiform Hemangioendothelioma and Tufted Angioma: a Single Arm Prospective Study

The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of topical application of tacrolimus for superficial Kaposiform hemangioendothelioma (KHE) and tufted angioma (TA).

Study Overview

Detailed Description

Kaposiform hemangioendothelioma (KHE) and tufted angiomas (TA) are rare vascular tumors, which are apparent predominantly in infancy or early childhood. Currently, no standard treatment regimens exist for KHE/TA. The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of topical application of tacrolimus for superficial Kaposiform hemangioendothelioma (KHE) and tufted angioma (TA).
