Hemangioma – Multiple Birthmarks

Transcript

Hemangiomas themselves, when they’re isolated, there’s no need to do genetic testing. However, if you do have multiple different types of birthmarks or you have different types of nevi (meaning the little moles) and then you have birthmarks as well, or you have one leg that’s larger than the other – you do need to see a birthmark specialist. They will send you (typically) for genetic testing as well as imaging to see the extent of the type of a birthmark that you have.
