Hemangioma en la cara (nariz)
Los hemangiomas son tumores que se originan de los vasos sanguíneos dilatados que por lo general aparecen poco después del nacimiento, aunque pueden estar presentes al nacer. Los hemangiomas en la cara pueden desfigurarla e interferir con el desarrollo de la visión u obstruir las vías respiratorias.
